re: Replacing Vista with XP on new laptop Wednesday, February 14, 2007 at 1:50 pm Windows Vista Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Kevin (1 messages posted) I would not go backwards to a 5 year old operating system. There are some applications that you will have to upgrade like Nero unless you are running 7.0 and also DVD player software. Anti-virus is also going to have to be upgraded.Are you aware that there is a backware compatibility freature in Vista just like Xp? I would try and install the applications in compatibility mode and see if they work then. You are going to have to upgrade sometine anyway so why not now?
