If the laptop came with XP (dunno if it would - I don't keep tabs on Dell's numbering system), just simply starting over by formatting and installing Windows XP should work fine.

And well, apprantly, if we can't downgrade it, we're screwed, Tachyon. But, is there a way to disable the thing that doesn't allow you to install an older version?

to format you're hardisk in XP is a little hard.. First you have to go to BIOS and change that you can boot with CD. If you can boot with a floppy disc don't bother with that. Then you boot up, and then pushes E.
Then you push 1..
And so you type the password, usally it's no.
So you type.. :"format The driver you want to format"
example:"Format c:"
Edit: ehh..

I can cunclude that it was working like "crap" at first 'cause the computer itself is older than Windows xp.
