Hi,

To install WindowsXP, you would need to boot with the installation disk, and
at the point where you choose the installation location remove the existing
system partition. Create a new one from the free space, format it (quick is
fine), and proceed to install XP. Note that any data currently saved on that
drive will be lost during this procedure, so if there is anything on it you
don't want to lose you should copy it to removable media before beginning.

HI apeace--

As the two previous posters have pointed out, you would need an XP CD to
install XP, so why not give Vista a chance and post precisely what
compatability problems you are trying to overcome and any other problems
Vista is presenting to you, and maybe we can help with that.
