Hello everybody, I have an Issue installing the Windows XP Professional SP2 OS on my new PC. It has installed by default Windows Vista Home, but I would like to install Windows XP.

The point is that my PC (Packard Bell Imedia D7221) comes with a new featured devices for me:

I don't know why, but the boot XP boot loader starts PERFECTLY until it finish, because it shows me the old fashioned Windows BLUE Screen and don't start the OS installation menu.

either way, i think it would be good if you explained how you went about installing xp.Well, I'm trying to install WXP with Vista, everyone in one partition. The point is that the WXP installation menu doesn't start.

that is probrably what went wrong. (i'm assuming you've already installed xp and vista on the same partition as you say you've seen the windows xp bootloader).

use vista repair disc to repair install vista, then boot from that. then remove xp. then re-install xp on a different partition.No, I'm installing it in different partitions. I need the HDD drivers for the mainboard and LOAD it from the WXP installation (When the installer interface shows the press F6 option)
