You've just posted a general statement. If you would like help in
solving any issues you're having with Vista you might try posting one
issue at a time so that others might offer insightful help in solving them.
If however you've given up on Vista and wish to install XP simply boot
from your XP CD and start the clean install process. There is no such
thing as a "downgrade" from Vista, or for that matter from any other OS.
You may want to backup important files to either another computer,
CD/DVD or external HDD.
