Hey all,

1. If I have two OS: XP Pro and Vista Ultimate installed on different drives, so I can use either, can it be that the vista installation will cause the XP system to work slower?
I mean, if I have the vista installed, but running the XP instead ("old OS" )
can it be slower due to the presence of Vista?

2. how can I Un-install Vista?

thanks

It's TRUE!!! The presence of Vista makes your XP installation run slower!! As a matter of fact, you should go to your neighbors house, and uninstall Vista from their PC, too!! If your computer isn't any faster after doing that, you picked the wrong neighbor - So you must repeat the process until you find the Vista installation that is responsible for your XP installation running slowly.

I think that the Vista installs "agents" in every drive of the system, this is why I asked.
