Guest Fayaz Posted October 24, 2008 Posted October 24, 2008 Hello, Few days back I bought HP dv5 1102tu. It has come with Vista preinstalled. However, I want to use XP, as I m comfortable with it, moreover, some of my previous softwares are not working in Vista. But, when I tried installing XP, it gave some error in blue screen. Please, anyone tell me how to install XP in my notebook. Thank in advance
Guest R. McCarty Posted October 24, 2008 Posted October 24, 2008 Re: Installation of XP on HP dv5 1102tu You should check at the HP forums. There are a number of people who have posted detailed instructions on how to replace Vista. You should be aware that obtaining XP drivers for new model notebooks is getting very hard to find. There are other considerations like any future peripheral purchases may not include XP drivers.

Guest R. McCarty Posted October 24, 2008 Posted October 24, 2008 Re: Installation of XP on HP dv5 1102tu Good point, Also before removing Vista be sure to either Image the Vista state of the machine or make sure the Recovery Optical disks are created. In the future if you wish to return to Vista you'll need one or the other. Most OEMs do not provide the OS installation disk.
