Unfortunately, you cannot downgrade windows Vista to windows XP as you cannot downgrade windows XP to windows 2000, or windows 2000 to windows 98 and so on... But you can, however save any important data you have on the C: partition to the other partitions you have, and then format C: and install windows XP. I hope I was helpful :)

That is assuming you have a copy of XP that will work. This is the big reason I always suggest building your PC and using an OEM version of windows. The windows you get with your current computer will never work on anything but that computer, OEM versions will work on every PC

Thats what You think. THere is a lot of downsides for Vista. Some programs need Windows XP to function. I personally think that Vista sucks.

Well,maybe I can't help you with this problem.But I really think that vista is better than XP.You need some time to be familiar with vista.
