Re: INSTALLATION of Vista on Dell E521, AMD 64 processor, any problems???

I just d\L Vista, acct of messed up system restore, which caused
nothing to work.

I would like to reinstall Windows XP and remove Vista.

Can someone outline the steps in a organized fashion.

My keys for windows XP did not work on my copy of windows XP and am
awaiting a new copy.. That is why I installed Vista.

Thanks

Roger
