I am wanting to remove vista from my computer and put XP Pro on it but Vista will not uninstall. I have tried putting in the XP Pro cd to remove the partitions but that doesn't work either. Will Partition Magic remove Vista from my computer?

I have it set to boot to CD ROM, is that what you mean what order is the bios set at? I am really wanting to know if Partition Magic will remove Vista before I spend the money getting it.

Your xp pro disk should be able to remove Vista if you delete the partition , afterewards you just recreated again and install xp . Though I am not sure about PM . And you can try the 6 floppy from MS to . Also there others you can try but here another one you can try below call boot disk .
