Replacing Vista with XP on new laptop

I just bought a new laptop with Vista installed and found that Vista does not support the programs I bought the computer to use. I would very much like to remove Vista and install XP instead, as it serves my purposes much better. I have another laptop that has XP installed, and if there is a way I can transfer the data without having to buy a new XP software package, that would be plus, but I am willing to buy it if I have to. I feel it is worth noting that my older laptop's disc drive no longer functions, and this is my main motivation in replacing it with the new machine. I'm not terribly good at this sort of thing, but if there is a way that I can do this myself without having to go back to the store where I just bought it, it would be a huge relief.
