Can I have Windows XP on my new laptop?
I have a Toshiba Satellite M30X 127, which is done on a bit now and think to be replaced by a new Toshiba laptop, everything is like these days in the quality and reliability of my M30X.
BUT...
I certainly don't want Vista. Is it possible to request a Windows XP option? Most of the stores would address this request without problem, or I'd be more likely to get answers "sorry, can't do?
Thank you!
Hello!
You can ask the computer dealer if he has a Toshiba laptop with Windows XP, but as far as I know, most Toshiba laptops come with Windows Vista.
However, you can buy a laptop with Windows Vista, and then you can install XP using the Microsoft installation disc. Then you can download all the drivers on the Toshiba site:

why we can not put windows 7 on our new computers?
why we can not put windows 7 on our new computers?

You can "downgrade" to win 7 BUT dependent on the Lim, it may void your warranty and there is perhaps no drivers for your computer with windows 7.
Putting aside the modern splash screen (which you can ignore at startup) win 7 and win 8 are very similar. If you don't like the modern user interface, you don't need to use it.

never had a disc of windows vista with the new laptop and no option to make a recovery disk, and I need to format my laptop to factory / clean, help!
How to get Vista recovery Media and/or to use the Vista recovery Partition on your computer.
There is no Vista free download legal available.
Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.
Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.
See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.
Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...
Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ask them if you can also make recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.
They will tell you how to do this.
Every computer manufacturer has their way of doing recovery disk/s.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.
If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):
Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.
At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

After installation > go to the website of the manufacturer of your computer/notebook > drivers and downloads Section > key in your model number > get latest Vista drivers for it > download/install them.
Save all data, because it will be lost during a clean installation.

Im doing just because my computer is slow and its time to format the hard drive... so I need to wipe it off, but I don't want to lose windows in the process
If Windows 7 is pre-installed on laptop, Mike instructions don't you will lose Windows 7. If you bought Windows 7 separately and allows you to format the computer, which also does not let you lose thel travel when you format the drive from your installation disc.
