    Hi,
    I bought a Dell Inspiron 620 notebook. It had Windows Vista home pre installed in it. I want to remove VISTA and install XP.
    When i try using a Windows Xp boot cd, it says some hardware error and exits. Can you please help me?

    What is the name of the error, and are any files mentioned?
