Replace VISTA with XP

Someone would replace VISTA with XP on a HP laptop bought a year ago.
Because it was doing very well with XP, but knows the system.

I have another friend who came VISTA for XP on a HP laptop bought 6 months ago. Mistake. Problems!
The question: is it advisable to change Vista to XP on a laptop recently?
If this issue has been addressed already I apologize but I have not found after search on the Forum.

thank you

Check on the HP site if XP drivers are available and if not essayist risk of error with swearword head lol.

Vista to XP on a Toshiba laptop, I've done it without problem, but I must say that I have prepared my installation. I am going to advance on the website of the company find all the drivers and I copied onto an external hard drive and then I install a new hard disk on my laptop and install a software and drivers that I Download. I must say that I have 2 hard drives that interchange in turn 1 with XP installed and the other with original vista laptop and I must say since 1 year I have far more problems with Vista than XP .

Yeah I also did the same thing but you have no widgets offered by Hitachi as auto transfer to wireless network, many functions FN and you will see that if you have Media Center, expects you to beautiful surprise . It took me 2 months to see it.

for whom I asked a friend convinced her to stay with VISTA. This approach is too complicated for her.

thank you
