I installed Vista and I like it and its features, but I need to uninstall it
and go back to my previous Xp Home Edition so I can do the things I was
planning to do this month. I want to uninstall it and keep my files and
settings and go back to my Xp Home Edition. My recovery portion of my HDD is
thier, but the F11 activation is gone, so I can not activate it. My video
card can't keep Vista stable and its sucking all of my spare RAM so I cant
play my games like I could. I will countinue to look into uninstalling it
myself with my current resources but I need help incase I don't find a
answer. Please post any help to my question. thank you

You cannot uninstall an operating system. You wont have the recovery option
since Vista has been installed over your previous operating system. If you
have recovery disks that came with your computer then use those, otherwise
you will need a fresh/legite copy of WinXP in order to do a clean install. Or
if your computer is still under warranty you can try contacting your
manufacturer for a recovery disk.

Who is the Windows Vista BETA 2 release for?

IT Professionals, Developers, Enthusiast, people who like to back up their
data and try out new things and don't have issues just in case something goes
wrong installing the software.
