Come out with a "business" reason that you need XP and get a downgrade license to legally run XP - then pray you can find all of the right XP drivers and do a clean install...

i had problems with vista... and it turns out 99% of it was hardware related

if you have an nvidia graphics card? Get ATI
if you have one of those older style MS wireless keyboards/mice - upgrade

ive been running flawlessly for months now

there is no compelling reason to upgrade really, but... as long as your willing to upgrade your hardware a bit, youll be fine if you do.

brand new machine from dell. every time i slip a dvd (porno or otherwise) into the machine it keeps hanging up and crashing (no response to ctrl-alt-delete) so i hit the oh$hit button.

i am also dealing with a brand new dell box. software and hardware issues
conflicts with nvidia
conflicts with roxio
installer disappeared
etc...
