Thank you so much in advance!From Vista to XP? How do I install another OS?
you basically have two options:
1. dual boot, meaning have both vista and xp on the hard drive at the same time, just google it, see what u get.
2. you have to put the xp file(s) on a disc, make sure it's a bootable disc, and completely wipe your hard drive. you can use darren's boot and nuke to do that.
3. then turn on your computer, and at the beginning press the button that will get you into the bios, and change the primary startup option to your cd drive. Save ur changes, and shut down. put the xp disc in, and turn on. installation for xp should come up. then run through and that should do it.
1. install all your software and drivers afterwords.From Vista to XP? How do I install another OS?
you need to have a serial for XP also the file needs to be on a cd so if it is an ISO burn it then restart your computer and when it says boot from cd....press enter the setup files load when it say to select a partion...delete the existing partion and the create a new one (look at the bottom of the screen for the keys to press to do this) ok now install on the partion you created...you computer will restart when its done an will start the xp setup....then you will need to add the serial to continue the installation and the rest is really simple
i hope u have a microsft copy of xp with the correct key --- if not by by laptop --- search google for installing windows ---- best u read to long to put here---- if u have never done it find someone who has to be with u ---- coz u can mess it up bad -- u need all ur drivers before u even think of installing xp u cant load with out them -- the first on is ur cd/rom drive
and microsoft does not down load from the net ----it comes on a cd
