windows xp drivers and utilities disc
when i bought my dell inspiron 530 desktop windows vista home premium,
it cam with 2 discs. one says operating system (already installed on your computer. for vista)
and the other one says
drivers and utilities.
dell also gave me a windows xp professional service pack 2 disc (operating system)
what i want to know is that if i install the windows xp professional disc, can i use the drivers and utilities disc too for the xp?

Sounds like the XP drivers are there, but in any event, here is the 530 driver download page that may have updates from those on your disk:
