I can't install XP multiboot on my current laptop with Vista.
I would install XP multiboot on my current laptop with Vista. I created a new partition in the goal, but my XP CD (old) does not run the installation program. The error message says it's because the operating system is a later version.
How can I solve this problem?
Turn on the laptop. Place the XP disk in the CD/DVD drive. Do a fresh install of XP using the partition that you created.
Now, Vista does not start because its charger has been replaced by the XP loader.

Dell Inspiron Laptop with Vista installed at the factory does not start.
Remember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!
Ideas: Dell Inspiron Laptop with Vista installed at the factory does not start. The display shows
Indicator of treatment MM061 series white 80% in all of the BIOS revision A13 treatment indicator always goes to the same place and stops. I tried to tap the F8 key, but nothing happens.
If you used Dell or the recovery Partition recovery disks to restore the system, you must talk about Dell problem because it's their software - not Microsoft. We don't know what's on it or its operation. We have no information to help us help you. You need to deal with them.
Sorry we can't be more helpful.

Original title: Vista to Win 7 to win 10
I have a laptop with Vista Home Premium installed. My plan is to install Win 7 and then move on to Win 10. I have a new full version of Windows 7 Pro SP1 with an activation key. I have experience update to Win 10 of Win 7, but worry about the installation of Win 7 over Vista. I guess I have to do a clean install. There is no problem to meet the minimum requirements of 10. Can someone give me some advice on the start-up of the conversion of Win 7? Just insert the disk? Everything has been backed up and it's ready to go! Thank you.
Since the family migration to Windows Vista Premium to Windows 7 Professional it will install a clean place, why not simply use your Windows 7 Professional product key to perform a custom Windows 10 Pro install from the go?
I don't see the need to bother installing Windows 7 Professional.
