    Hi,

    I am not able to format vista from DV2519tu, want to load XP. I have contacted Hp, they told that they wont support other OS for this model. Can anybody give the procedure to uninstall Vista . Thanks in advance.

    Regards,

    There is no uninstall procedure for Vista, the only way to get rid of an OS from the HD is to format the HD with your XP nstall disc. If your system has a SATA drive, then you will need to slipstream SATA drivers onto the XP disc and then do the installation. Search around the forums for instructions on how to do this.
