Device Manager? And what do I not need to worry about drivers for...stuff that xp instantly recognizes? I've done XP install over xp 20 times. I'm just worried that something is not going to work if I put xp on my vista laptop. Any advice from people that have had to do this, would be greatly appreciated. Vista is totally useless.
I don't see how you have a choice. Everything I have heard about Vista is bad. XP is relatively stable. It also just had SP3 released so that should have a high level of compatibility.

Don't roll back do a fresh install.
