I have brought a computer from dell, but one of my software does not support Window Vista, therefore, i would like to change to window xp Pro, Can anybody have done that before. Since like dell does not allow us to change vi. of Window? Thanks
Does anybody know how can i change Window Vista home to Window Xp Pro?
get the Windows XP CD, reformat the machine, and reload. You will have to download all of the drivers from Dell's support website. The CD they might have sent with device drivers will not work in XP.
Any add on software they might have provided will not reload on XP, you will not be able to use that anymore unless you download it again.

you need to install xp
either by removing vista and installing xp from new
or install xp as well and have dual boot
The only way is to install a Windows XP CD, format the hard disc, find all the drivers for the devices in your computer that require one (video card, sound card, etc.). There is no downgrade application from Vista to XP.
Of course, you can downgrade to XP professional. You will, however, need a copy of Windows XP. Simply insert it into your CD ROM drive, restart your computer, and boot from the CD. Then follow the on-screen prompts and install XP.
