I'm sure this question is asked over and over, but I just bought a new laptop, and unfortunately the only OS option was Vista Home Premium. I don't want to turn this into a Vista-fueled flamefest; the reason I don't want Vista is that the laptop's specs simply aren't up to the task and I'd rather not unneccesarily hamstring performance. I can get a legit copy of XP for next to nothing through my school, so my question is this: How can I get Vista COMPLETELY off my computer, with no vestiges left to muck up my XP install? I can't format the C: drive while I'm running Vista; will I have to install XP on the D: first, then format C? Or is there another, better way? Thanks in advance.
