Microsoft is now no longer advertising XP. Following the launch of living house windows 7 later this month, MS would be phasing out all help for XP. next time a trojan horse or secure practices hollow is discovered, MS won't patch it and all computers working XP would be huge open to hackers and viruses. application makers are not from now on rdesigning application that works with XP, and maximum hardware distributors now no longer deliver XP drivers. by using this time next year you will no longer have the skill to purchase something which will tun on XP. that's a ineffective OS, enable it die. do no longer attempt to make a zombie out of it. the reason your workstation can no longer see better than 3.3 gb of RAM will possibly no longer through version of living house windows you're employing, yet because of the fact it in straight forward terms has a 32 bit processor. reminiscence is dividing to equivalent length "chunks" so as that the workstation can tell the place on the reminiscence chip to seek for information. A 32 bit processor can in straight forward terms carry a huge decision as much as 32 bits (or digits) in length. this implies the main important huge sort the workstation can carry will in straight forward terms take it to the reminiscence at 3.3 gb. it could no longer carry a huge decision for 3.4 or greater gb. there is not any patch which will restoration this while you evaluate that's a actual difficulty of the processor itself. in the journey that your workstation has a sixty 4 bit processor, than you are able to load the sixty 4 bit version of the two Vista or the recent living house windows 7 and get admission to all of the reminiscence (as much as sixteen tb or 1600 gb). Order the computer with Vista. Microsoft is offering a unfastened acquire to living house windows 7 to everybody who purchase a working laptop or workstation after Aug of this year. try Vista and notice the way it works. in case you settle on you are able to not stand Vista, then improve to living house windows 7 particularly than downgrade to a ineffective XP.

If the computer was new and had never had Windows XP on it before, you'll need to buy a Windows XP disc from somewhere (try Tiger Direct) and then downgrade to it.
In order to do that, you'll need to reformat your hard drive (erasing everything on it, back ALL your stuff up) and then doing a clean install with Windows XP.

Well, this isn't really an answer to your question, but I have a computer with Vista, too, and I don't like it that well, but little by little you start to find out where things you were familiar with went to, and then it's not as bad (I still don't love it). Also, a lot of other software is still catching up to Vista's existence, so little by little that situation will improve as well. Just a thought...maybe give yourself a little time before downgrading.

Backup any data, boot to XP disk, reformat/partition, install XP.
Sorry, it's the only way...

I would suggest to contact them and ask about that. There arent really any type of things on the internet certainly that will help with that. Calling them would be the best thing to do.

Yes, basically you have to reinstall XP. Not fun, not easy.
