Is windows XP Vista better than just Windows Vista or is it the same thing?

There is no such thing as "Windows XP Vista." There is Windows XP and there is Windows Vista. They are two different versions of the Windows operating system (XP is older than Vista). As to which is better (XP or Vista) if that is your question -- I think most people would say that XP is better, but this probably depends on which operating system you are used to and what type of work you do with the computer. That said, even Windows Vista is out of date, now. New machines will have Windows 8 (or Windows 7 if it is slightly older).

I have Vista Home on my computer and want to install Windows XP Professional and be able to run both systems.?

The easiest way is to format the system partition and install Windows Xp and then Vista. If you install Xp after Vista you might have to edit BOOT.INI manually. I beleave Vista will not allow you installing Xp when it's runnning. So you need a bootable XP (and Vista Home) CD/DVD. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Actually it is possible to run both Windows XP and Windows Vista on the same computer but you will have to set up a Dual Boot setting up 2 partitions, formatting them to NTFS format, then installing XP on the first partition then Vista on the second.

You have Windows Xp and you want keep it and Install Windows Vista?

You have to create at least one more partition for Vista. If you install Vista on the partition where XP is installed Vista will delete XP. To avoid such problem you have to have one more partition. When you do that just start the Vista installation process from XP and choose just created partition for Vista.
