Default Uninstalling Vista

Can someone please point me to an article describing how to Uninstall Vista
and revert to Windows/XP? Thanks.

Default Re: Uninstalling Vista

Hi Papillion,

Depends on whether you have a windows.old file from an upgrade.

If you do, see:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/933168

If not, then it's even easier. Boot with the XP CD and start setup. At the
point where you choose the installation location, delete the existing
partition housing Vista. Create a new one from the resulting free space,
then format (quick is fine) and proceed with installing XP normally.
