I have Windows Vista and you need to install Windows XP Home Edition. Vista doesn't let me. What can I do? I need XP for my Quick Books program in order to make books. Please help me.

This computer was given to me by my kids.  I had with Windows Vista already installed.  I also want to install Windows XP to my Quick Books program.  Vista will not let me install XP.  Can you help me?

Hello

You don't say how you are trying to install XP and if the manufacturer of your computer has XP drivers available for this purpose to activate XP to be installed and run successfully on this subject.

You will need to go to their website where there should be a section to see if they have XP drivers for your model computer.

If they have XP drivers available for it, follow the instructions in these links provided in its response to dual boot Vista and XP:

http://www.syschat.com/dual-boot-Vista-XP-Vista-already-1946.html

I prefer the Instructions in the second link.

Here's another consideration on the use of the XP Compatibility Mode in Vista for QuickBooks, but as I don't use QuickBooks, you will need to request support QuickBooks if it would work in this way.
