Re: is windows vista license cover windows xp license

Hi,

I think you are referring to downgrade rights? If your Vista license came
from a manufacturer, then you need to contact them to see if they offer this
(some do, some do not). If you have a retail copy of Vista, then it begs the
question of why you bought it instead of XP (which is still commonly
available)? In any case, to install XP you will need an appropriate product
key, as the one you have for Vista can not be used to install or activate
XP.
