Answer #1
Vista Premium is available on the forum in several different versions. Just use the search function and you’ll find enough of them. Then just download one, burn it onto a DVD and when you feel like it, reinstall it, it’s easy as that. However, make sure that your laptop wasn’t made for Vista, because if it was the manufacturer won’t be offering driver for XP for your laptop. Also, first download the correct drivers for it and then install them as soon as you format and install XP. Good luck mate ^_^
Answer #2
what computer do you have
normally they come with a reocvery partition
or CDs
but if not you can download the OEM version of Vista and when you install you can use your key and it should work
by the way, make sure your warrenty allows a downgrade mate
and get drivers before you install XP
i recommend do a dual boot making vista very small or just warrenty purposes, as what i have done

i think i have a recovery partition since i have 120gb hard disk with only 1 partition that has 103gb…and i dint get any cd with the laptop…i have all the drivers i am sure of that…..my quescion was this ripped version are 1 and the same as a original cd ? i have asked the moron that saled me the pc and sayd i can install xp but if somthing like cd-rom or etc its broken they will repair if the pc has vista.
please explain more about dual boot i think i will go with this variant.thanks

Dual booting means running two Operation Systems on the same machine. Dual Booting Vista and XP can be a pain in the a55 if you’re new to the stuff and since when XP installs it overwrites the Bootloader and need your Vista DVD anyway in order to successfully dual boot both OS. Getting an installation from here will serve you immeasurably in almost any purpose. Here’s a rather useful guide on how to create the Dual Boot and it fits your situation:
