I would use 2 WMI Filters on the OS version. You'll need 2 GPOs & 2 WMI filters, 1 for each OS.
The WMI filter would be something like Select * FROM Win32_OperatingSystem WHERE Caption="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" Or you could use the 'Version' instead of Caption. Don't have any vista machines to test it on. Others on the list may have a better option.
