She is also a computer geek! LOL Anyway, her first advice is that Vista runs better and you should keep it, just learn to use it. However, if you really want to change ... you need to create a Toshiba Recovery disc and save to CD. then go to the Toshiba website and get all the drivers you need for sound, video, etc etc for XP and put them on disc. When you are confident you have all recovery information ... you need to format your harddrive and load XP home. Sounds to me that the best advice was the first ... keep Vista!

Then install vista after removing windows xp. IF that's the case then not only will you have to install your drivers again but any programs you have installed on xp will have to be re-installed. I recommend just sticking with xp, IMO it is much more stable and uses less resources than vista does. Just to give you an idea of how much vista hogs your system. My computer came with vista pre-installed. It idled at 38% with no programs running in the background. I un-installed vista and put xp on my computer and i ran 19% with no program open. I idle at 40% with over 10 programs open at once running in the background (anti virus, itunes etc.etc.) Anyways if you do go the way you are talking you will also need drivers compatible with vista. The ones that are compatible with xp only will NOT work. From what i understand you want to install xp on your computer until you get enough money for vista.

It only takes about 10 seconds, but it needs to be done..

The only thing you have to do is going on the Sony site and download the drivers for your mobile. http://esupport.sony.com/perl/select-system.pl?PRODTYPE=1,24,26,66,9,70,5,72 Then you need a XP with a licence --- Or you can get a Sony Recovery CD in XP Home --- MS permits the downgrading Vista to XP only for the Pro versions for free ------------------------------------------- For the thumb down... In France, you can by the Original CD XP for VAIO for 20 €, that means 30$ -------------------------------------------- for avatarofyourdreams Use Everest or Aida or any pgm who gives you informations on you motherboard. The go on the board's manufacturer and download the drivers. For instance, if your bios is a VIA, go to viaarena.com and download hyperion 5 in 1, you'll got everything you need. By the way, Best Buy are crooks if they charge you 150 $ for nothing THAT IS VERY EASY.
