Change Vista To Xp Pro

[amie654]

I bought a new computer and it came with Vista and I have had nothing but trouble with it. I cant get most of the stuff I was running to work. I bought a new copy of Windows XP Pro and would like to change to that as that is what I had before and everything worked OK. This new computer has a 9 in 1 card reader and I would like to know if XP has a driver for it or will I have to try to find one? Thanks to anyone who can help.

That is the process. Install any copy of XP with any product key and then ring microsoft to activate - you will then need to quote a non activated vista key and they will profide a activation key for the XP install.

It appears that your post is now a week old and I am wondering if you have heard anything from Microsoft on it.  I ordered a new ThinkPad and the only way I could get it at the advertised price was to have VISTA on it.  I must have a downgrade to XP Pro because the software I will use in my work will not run with VISTA according to its vendor.  I was also told by the Lenovo salesman that there was a Microsoft Downgrade available but seeing your post makes me wonder if that is correct.
 
Any information you have on how to get this moving would be appreciated.
