Can't you install XP and then go back to Vista? I dunno, cus I'm not that familiar with how OS's work. I could help you with other stuff though.

You need to create a partition for XP. Or just drop in a seperate, smaller drive, and install XP on that.

i d/loaded XP, but when i try to install i get a "compatibility error" message. well, one of my friends has a XP comp, but he's gone for a week >_> and i rly dont wanna have to buy yet another computer >_> but at least i found out how you can use your PSP battery as a Pandora battery and a normal batt.

Get new drive, put new drive in, remove Vista Drive, install XP on new drive. When done, change back.
