| | Re: Downgrading Windows Vista Business to Windows XP pro Koen Just to my 2 cents in here. There was never any downgrade from Windows2000. It was a Upgrade . Windows 2000 was able to be Upgraded to Windows XP Pro only. You could not use it to Upgrade to XP Home. Windows 2000 is Windows XP without the eye candy -- Peter Please Reply to Newsgroup for the benefit of others Requests for assistance by email can not and will not be acknowledged.
