how to install windows xp with vista



most new computers especially laptops come with the system of fabruquant esploitation windows vista

beacoup but users still feel that there is a need for Windows XP, there are many reasons, it may be the most important of the presence of many important programs for users and they do not correspond to Windows Vista, and other reasons!

this and for all that ComputerA windows vista and wants to install windows xp with the first operating system


we begin to Baroda you need to cd The installation of XP and Vista



1 - settings - create a new partition


If you have a (partition) ready to install xp, you can skip this step and go directly to the next step!
Here we explain how to create a partition to install a new hard drive in,,,

The start is right click laboutton 'computer' or french 'workstation and after click on' manage '''manage''




now you will see a window 'computer management'

by click on 'disk management' in after lick with the right button on the 'c' partition, which is blue
Now a small window we define the space we want in the new partition and then pressing 'shrink'




after this step is a vote on the new partition in unallocated black 'Unallocated'



would have preferred that you rename the drive letter on your computer, whether by right-clicking the right mouse and select 'change drive letter and path
see picture:


after click 'change'



And then choose from the list 'E' is the drive, then click 'yes' when you confirm the operation as follows





Then click the right button sue the partition unallocated 'unallocated space' and choose New Simple Volume 'New Simple Volume

then all this has ended in laphoto ..




After this step, we will restart the computer twice to make sure you complete the process to rename the sheets!






-------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------++-
2 - install windows xp now simle

Note: there are hard drive that want to install xp because of system-level hard disk (sata we'll see ....) ca parcque each computer has a different solution.

-------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------++

3 -

After installing Windows XP and rebooting, we will find that we can access on Windows Vista!
There is no option that we can! That's what we do in this step, create an option that allows us to choose to take it and access both from Windows XP
Or Windows Vista,

To complete this step, we need 'VistaBootPRO' program
The program can be downloaded from the company's website from the following link:

http://www.area59.org/vistabootpro/dl/VistaBootPRO_3.3.0.exe

Note: If you downloaded the link not just describe 'vistaboot pro download google'

It is worth mentioning that the program requires. Net Framework 2.00 to work, so it offers the possibility of this option in the installation

After installing the program, open the VistaBootPRO
you will see message appears 'backup your BCD' you will be ignored!

on LaFace program is click on System Bootloader''after''we''choisisser Windows Vista Bootloader in the first''option''and''All Drives option in the second after you click on Install Bootloader'''''see photo




after its in the list click on it mrogramme Diagnostics''on''selected''''Run Diagnostics

Now you will see by default that you two:
Earlier versions of Windows (you can rename it xp ..)

Microsoft Windows Vista


It restarts the computer, we find that we have a list would allow us to choose the operating system you want

Windows 8 rules at Microsoft Build (roundup)


This year's Build conference comes at a crucial time for Microsoft. PC growth is slowing and tablets are catching on. Now, with Windows 8, Redmond hopes to change the conversation.

Why Windows 8 isn't an iOS copycat

Windows 8 is the first version of Microsoft's OS designed to work on tablets with touch from the very start. But it's not merely aping Apple--it's approach is very different.

Why Windows 8 isn't an iOS copycat






This week saw the latest step towards the release of Windows 8, the next major version of Microsoft's operating system that represents one of the biggest changes in the history of the platform.
At its Build conference on Tuesday, Microsoft spent more than two hours on stage detailing its next OS. While the software isn't expected to make it into consumer hands until sometime next year, we now have a clearer picture of how Microsoft is positioning it to an industry that's shifted its purchases (and affections) from desktops to notebooks, and now portable devices like tablets and smartphones.
In short, Windows 8 is Microsoft's big answer to that broadening landscape: a product that can power nearly all machines, with an interface that can adapt along the way. That right there is one of the biggest differences between Microsoft's vision of computing and Apple's, which created a separate OS to power its portables, while keeping the desktop OS for its Intel-based machines.
However that separation has led to a massive difference in the way consumers look at operating systems, particularly with how often that software is updated, bringing new features to hardware months and years after a purchase. By splitting up the two OSes, Apple was able to iterate quickly, rolling out major releases on an annual basis, while continuing to offer Mac OS X updates at their usual rate. Now the big question is how that will work with Windows 8 with regards to Metro, Microsoft's touch-friendly UI that's been designed for tablets running Windows 8.
Microsoft has traditionally released a new version of Windows every few years, but tablet users are now accustomed to more frequent feature updates. For proof of that, you can look at the iPad, which launched without multitasking and a number of other features the iPhone had, only to get it later with a software update. Android users face a similar future, with the promise of additional software updates.
Comparatively, Microsoft has saved those big feature updates for major releases, and charged for them too. This has created a cycle where developers in the Apple camp can depend software updates to build on top of: Mac OS X developers have come to expect a major update every few years, with iOS getting updates every year.
What does that mean for Windows 8 though? Will the lucrative tradition of releasing a major update every few years continue, while the Metro interface is left untouched, or does Microsoft intend to update it more often to keep up with the Joneses? Therein lies one of the potential drawback of trying to provide everything in one package. It's also something to watch considering how closely connected Windows 8's Metro interface is tied to Microsoft's Windows Phone 7 software, which so far has followed the speedier update trend.
The major thing Microsoft has going for it with Windows 8 is how much more open it is to letting third-parties make adjustments to the operating system itself. On the non-Metro side of Windows this is unchanged, with backwards compatibility for apps, a bevy of third-party plug-ins, and software that can run behind the scenes to custom-tailor your computing experience. What's unclear is how that will shape up on the Metro side of Windows 8.
During the Build keynote, we saw that users could extend what can be done from within an app based on other applications you had installed. In that case, it was a sharing app letting a user share the Web page they were on in IE10. But how much deeper Microsoft will let third-parties go with that customization? That wasn't shown off at Build.
One other big question that remains is whether Microsoft can woo developers to its platform with the promise of scale. Windows president Steven Sinofsky pitched the 5,000 developers who were at the Build keynote on the merits of building on Windows 8, based on the fact that there "could be 400 million people when this product launches."
Yet, even at 400 million, that could be a splintered group for developers to target. For instance, an application built for touchscreen tablets will only be aimed at those with the newer portables, which represents a smaller group (read: less revenue potential) and one with potentially different buying habits than desktop users (read: they might not pay as much per app). Then there are high-end games, which would be unplayable on the newer tablets for lack of a beefy CPU and graphics card. Yet those two things can sit side by side on Windows 8, Microsoft says.
So what are developers to do? If they want the money, they go with the bigger platform, which is traditional desktop users, or a competitor like Apple or Google. That, or they can bet on the future and hope it takes off, with them being on the ground floor.
To sweeten the deal, Microsoft's tried to remove any barriers to entry. That includes letting apps with different requirements sit side by side in its store, as well as offering developers a way to offer free trials of their software--both things Apple does not. It's also shown off more of its vision about where it wants to be, well ahead of when the actual software is ready for end users.
These bets could very well pay off for both users and developers in the long run, with applications that can tailor themselves to run on just about any hardware, and change the very deepest parts of Windows to a user's exact liking. If Microsoft can deliver that with Windows 8, it will be treading ground that Apple hasn't.

Is XP finally dying or is it the PCs it's been running on?


At long, long last, Windows XP is no longer the number one, end-user operating system. It only took, Microsoft, what? Not quite two years to get desktop users off XP to Windows 7? Well, you could look at it that way, but you’d be wrong.
The truth is that users haven’t been moving from XP to 7 of their own free will. They’ve been moving only because their old XP PCs are finally giving up the ghost. Then, and only then, are they getting Windows 7. Or, are they? If you look closer at Net Applications’ latest end-user Web statistics you’ll see that desktop users are Not moving to Windows 7 in droves.
While XP has dropped to 49.69%, Windows 7 use is only up to 27.92%. So, where is everyone else? Have they finally moved on to desktop Linux!? Ha. I wish! No, while almost 10% of users are still running Vista-the poor sods-many other people are moving on to Mac OS X.
You didn’t need a survey to tell you that though. All you need to do is look around any coffee shop and you can see that for yourself. In one of my own local favorite hangouts-the Dripolator in Asheville, NC–I just did a quick count and there’s eight Mac laptops is use; three Windows PCs, two Windows 7 and one XP; and yours truly with my Samsung Chromebook.
What’s far more telling though was the one woman who was using her iPad 2 with a Bluetooth keyboard. Two others were working with older iPads and one was using a Galaxy Tab using just their fingers. Everyone in the place, of course, had a smartphone. The phones were evenly divided between iPhone and Android models with one guy getting ticked off at his Blackberry. It’s the tablet and smartphone users who are really pointing the way to the end-user operating system future.
According to a recent IDG global smartphone survey, 69% of users are now using their phones for business. Specifically, “70% browse the Internet regularly and use mobile applications. These devices are no longer limited to calls, email, and text messages as people go online from home, on the move, and in the office. When surfing the web on smartphones, respondents indicated that general and IT news are most popular, followed by social networking access.”
In addition, 20% of this group, who were self-selected, tech. savvy users, already own tablets. Half of them are using their tablets for work. They’re using them for “Web browsing (93%), email (84%), mobile apps (72%), watching videos (69%), and reading publications (66%).”
The world is leaving fat-client desktops, like Windows, and yes, Mac OS X and desktop Linux behind. The desktop operating system isn’t going to die out, but it’s already becoming less important. In the next few years, more and more of us are going to be using tablets and smartphones for both home use and business.
In the long run, the question isn’t going to be “Which desktop operating system is going to be the winner?” No, it’s going to be, “Which mobile operating system will be the winner.” In 2021, we won’t be comparing Windows, Mac OS X and Linux as much as we will be Apple iOS; Google Android; HP webOS; other Linux-based mobile operating system such as MeeGo; and, possibly, Windows 8.
“XP? WIndows 7? Those old things?” We’ll say. “I don’t know how the old folks ever coped with them!”

Use ReadyBoost to optimize and accelerate Windows Vista



Windows Vista works with three types of memory, the RAM, the hard disk and ReadyBoost. Before the launching of Windows Vista with the new ReadyBoost technology, single we had two types of memory the RAM and the hard disk. The operation was or simple when we executed an application or game the data flowed from one to the other and vice versa until the total execution of the progRAM.
Of course, that whichever but RAM memory we had, more pieces of the code of the progRAM or game were executed in her, and the rest had to be overlapped with the hard disk, with the file of pagination or interchange. Then this has not changed, only that now Windows Vista allows us is an intermediate step between RAM memory and the hard disk, that will give benefits us of yield only in certain situations, that next we detailed.
Before going further, let us recall that Microsoft recommends the following specifications at least to profit from the contribution of performances of ReadyBoost technology:
  • Minimum disk space of 256 MB (capacity of advised GB) with an open space from at least 230 MB ,
  • Support of interface USB 2.0 ,
  • Direct minimum flow of 2,5 MB/s in reading E 1.75 MB/s in writing ,
  • Average access time of 1 ms .
For the remainder, the implementation of ReadyBoost technology is rather simple since it is enough, to start, to insert your certified Flash memory. One limps of dialogue is posted then and invites you to use or not ReadyBoost technology.
First we will have to know clearly a series of concepts, since in the end we ourselves we will have to decide, if we want to adapt this technology to our PC with Windows Vista and if we really obtain benefits of her.
RAM memory is without doubt, the first factor to modify to obtain a remarkable yield, changing the Chips by faster or adding more Chips if the plate allows it, to increase the amount of RAM memory. From now on and with the ReadyBoost technology that offers us Windows Vista already we can accelerate the pagination process. The explanation is very simple, if RAM memory this flood we go towards the pagination file (just as before) we read and we transferred data from one to another one, which happens now is that the data of location in the pagination file, are in key USB.
But we will have to consider an important consideration the operation of the hard disk is mechanic and the one of key USB with technology ReadyBoost is logical, or said of another form it takes part in the no mechanical process neither mall pillow nor discs turning, nor is time of positioning of the reading head on a sector or to cluster certain to read the information that asks for the RAM.
The RAM reads more express the data of the hard disk that of memory USB, but memory USB locates more express to them. That is to say, to a request of the RAM the hard disk takes 8ms in sending the first data and key USB approximately 1ms, but once located to the data the information it flows with but rapidity of the hard disk towards the RAM that of key USB to the RAM.
A great part of this new yield comes determined by the form in that Windows Vista reads these data and will depend on if they are great or small archives and based on the number of open maps. At the most small better since the keys, according to the explained thing previously handled but fast several small files that one great one. In main lines the yield notes more in the following situations:
  • when changing of user with initiated session ,
  • when returning from the hibernation state ,
  • when interchanging between several open maps ,
  • when interchanging between several sales of Internet Explorer ,
  • when changing of screen or changing of level in games ,
  • when the system has little RAM memory .
To also add that while a key this being used like ReadyBoost, will not be able to be used to keep files and that will have to be inserted with the ignited computer and following the facilismo menu that appears once in introduced screen, having of deinstalar it, if we decided not to use it but like ReadyBoost, being done click in Equipment, letter of the unit key USB and properties and click in not using this device.
