I think it would be just a case of jamming the CD in and installing it.



Don't blame you either - Vista is OK, but XP was far more stable IMO.



Edit: Not sure if you would need to do a format, some programs wouldn't work with XP if you were to downgrade from Vista. Though I suppose you'd be upgrading ;)
Easy enough. You just need to get a copy of Windows XP, stick the CD in the drawer on startup and then format your drive before installing it. So you will need to back up everything because it will all be wiped.



Instructions can be found here:

If your computer is two years old or more vista is not for you. Just place your xp disk back into your computer and install xp. You will get a message that you are about to install an older version of windows , so just click yes or o.k.
In the way you speak, vista is new in your system. so you can install a fresh copy of xp without a pain. Else you can go for a dual boot with xp and vista.
