If you converted a laptop to XP that originally came with Vista pre-installed, it is more than likely a Microsoft and/or pc manufacturer problem. I was thinking of doing the same thing when I first bought my Vista laptop. But after reading the problems people were having, I did research on the net. It is recommended that this NOT be done because hardware and software that come pre-installed use different drivers that are unique to the specific system (i.e. Vista or XP) that are not always compatible with each other. So, you might want to go to the manufacturer's website and be sure you have the correct drivers for the system you are now running, instead of what came pre-installed.
