Default format Vista OEM to XP help....

Hi guys.. as you guys now, nowadays, pc that u buy are mostly loaded with vista instead of XP.. thus, i would like to know how to format Vista and install XP...

I had tried to boot from XP installation disc.. However, it will skip everything and eventually goes into vista... It only allows repair or restore.. Thus i'm wondering are there anyway to format vista to XP...

Cant boot from XP disc.. Despite the fact that i boot from my friend disc as well.. meaning the disc had got no problem.. I format my com with the disc but not the window vista pc... Help needed..
Thanks...

Straightforward. Format and install. You need a sep license for the MS WinXP though. Unless you have VL. I believe MS allows you to transfer an OEM license to another machine just for this type of downgrade.
