Windows Vista Basic to Windows XP?

Hi

You have to buy a new copy of XP  and if you think you may want to go back to XP you have to make sure the new computer can support it as in is all of the XP drivers there for it!

Be careful !

Read about some of the problems that people are having when they try to go back to XP !

Good Luck   

You've gotten plenty good advise on how to step back to xp. Let me encourage you to give vista a chance. Like you, I really wanted to go back to xp. Reading all the complaints made me feel vista is inadequate. I'm sure if you are really a power user, really strain it to the max, vista may be a dog. I have found with what I use it for, surfing, pictures, video, email, etc.. it's great. There are a few quirks i dont like, sometimes it seems to get locked in a mode and take forever to logoff, shutdown, open a program, but these are very few.

 

There will be a learning curve, but you will like it the more you use it.....

Hi

It is always better to post what computer you bought

when you post on any of the forums here .

That way someone can tell you what to watch out for

after you get it or {before you buy it} !

I moved to Vista right after it came out and even before it came out 

i was in the Beta program for Vista with my D 8400

i will not go back to XP 32 bit at all .

 

Good Luck

 

Hello all of you, am a engineer, i just ordered a new vostro 1500 with 160 gb, 2ghz core 2 duo, 2gb ram, 256 mb video and all the stuff you can imagine... whatever: the stuff is I am used to my old inspiron 6000 with a xp home suite that works fine for me.. well  the thing is that in my country there are plenny of copies ilegal of xp. but even so..   I must really tell you.. am little afraid about changing my  os to xp.. i would rather use for some time the vista suite and see how it works.. well that's all i have to say..

 

what I only disagree is find two partition in my drive.. so i have a C:\ and a Recovery:\ drive   the first one uses 140 gb and the second one use 10 gb or more.. well the thing is i want to find out if the second one can be deleted or no.. or what is it use for?..
