Re: Uninstall Vista and go back to XP

Thanks Joan

I was looking at the sticker with the note of the key. Vista came pre-installed so it looks like it is OEM. Probably I should forget the previous installation disk and go out and buy an upgrade from XP to Vista. Quicker and cleaner in the long run.

Re: Uninstall Vista and go back to XP

Just to double check what version, be it OEM or Retail hit WIN+Pause/Break key. Down the bottom in the windows activation area, if you see OEM in your product ID, then it's an OEM version.
