    For about a month now I've been looking for the perfect computer for myself. I've finally saved enough money to do so. I'm posting this because I'm wondering if this computer with it's configuration can be changed from Vista to Windows XP. If so how would I do this? I do have a (Legitimate) Version of XP to install. Yet I'm not sure I could install it on top of Vista Or how would I go about this. I'm planning on purchasing this computer next month. If anyone can shed some light on this, I would greatly appreciate it. Plus are there any issues with HP that I need to know.

    Check and see if HP has drivers for the hardware for XP for this model. If you can't track down drivers, forget about installing XP.

    Just a head's up. Even upon finding the right drivers, for the swap from Vista to XP, HP's seem to refuse to take the HD audio drivers.
