I have a HP Pavillion which orginally had XP Media Center. Then for work reason I purchased a upgrade version of Vista Ultimate. I am now trying to go back to XP with my partitioned hard drive which has the original XP MC on it. I can not figure out how to do this. Can anyone help?? Please!!

If it is what you say then put might try to put any xp cd and boot to repair console. Then use maybe fixmbr and a few others.

I kind of suspect you may have other problems. When you installed Vista the xp should have been a menu choice.
