Vista to Xp
I recently purchases a 1521 with Vista, not knowing I could have gotten XP. Most of my software is not compatible and all in all I would rather use XP. how can I downgrade to Xp and is there going to be an issue with hardware compatiblility, I have a Dell XP disk is this what I would use?
Peace
- Microsoft are working the books on this one I'm afraid. Your copy of XP doesn't actually belong to you, it belongs to the PC (and when that PC dies, that copy of XP dies also). You would need to get their permission to transfer it across from. It's been done before but the rules vary depending on your situation and/or country.

nero should work. i have version 7.0.1 or something like that and it's working just fine. maybe it's time to update your version of acrobat? or try the software in compatibility mode? you might want to try that for your version of nero as well.
as far as your tungsten goes: all i did was go to the manufacturer's website and found this:

a little research and some software updating and you should be able to run vista without a hitch. i personally researched for 6 months before i installed a beta version of vista to see if i would even like it.
