    I have followed all of the threads discussing how this is done BUT I am still unclear on how to properly pull this off. ( Again ... I don't have the Vista DVD for a "clean install" )

    Can I leave Vista alone and shrink the hard drive and install XP Pro on the "unallocated space" ?

    Could someone please point me in the right direction please ?


    Thanks in advance !
