I have windows vista on this computer and I want to remove it and add windows xp.

I have Windows Vista on this computer and I want to remove it and replace it with Windows XP Professional.  Whenever I tried to do, I succumbed. I tried to just boot from the cd and install xp and it tells me that the version on the computer is newer than the one I am trying to install and then gives me no option besides. I left and I restarted in safe mode and the command propt tried to fdisk and he said no authorized for this.  When I try to format it is said that volume id and I don't know who.  I've never been so lost trying to remove a platform in my life.  I would like to have an answer to this problem, thanks and have a blessed day, Robin

Hi Robin,

·         What is the type of disc you are having? It's a drive to upgrade or full version?

·         How many partitions are present on the computer?

·         Why would you downgrade from Windows Vista to Windows XP?

You need demarrer start from the installation disc, choose the partition where Windows is installed (ideally the C drive). Format it and then go to the Windows XP installation.

Let us know if you need more assistance.
