    Hey guys,
    I need some help. I recently bought an Acer Aspire 5100 laptop with Windows vista as my OS. Here's the thing, I backed up before I removed Vista, only, when I added xp pro some things don't seem to work properly. Now i want to put Vista back on my laptop and restore my lap top the way it was before I removed it. Can i just put my recovery disc in to reinstall?

    Any suggestions or help would be great.

    thanks

    If you have a recovery disk , then you should be able to restore it to the state it was shipped. What are the problems you have with Vista ? Maybe they can be fixed easily.
