Hi, You cannot downgrade an operating system. You will have to nuke the hard drive and reload from the beginning. This is a tough one to do because you have to back-up everything you want to keep and make sure you have all the drivers for everything in your computer. Let me know if you have any questions. -Nitin Answer: Answer:
1: What you will receive: One copy of the applicable Windows Server downgrade software and associated product key. 2: The Downgrade Media Kit is not a new license for Windows Server. It may only be run under a valid license per the terms of those license terms. For example, a copy of Windows Server 2003 R2 Enterprise Edition may be run under a Windows Server 2008 license as permitted by the Downgrade rights described in that license. Check the applicable license terms for specific information regarding the rights for the license. 3: Transfer rights apply to the original license you purchased. 4: Only 1 downgrade media kit per license. 5: The terms of this offer may be changed at any time without notice including, without limitation, the expiration date. 6: There is a fee for this upgrade to cover materials, shipping, handling, and fulfillment overhead. The fee will vary depending on your location. The amount will be presented to you prior to final submission of your order. At that time, you will have the opportunity to opt out before final order submission. The fee is non-refundable. 7: OEM Customers: If you acquired your license with a new server from a server manufacturer, the downgrade software acquired through this program may not be supported by your OEM. Contact your server manufacturer for its support policy for running downgrade software on their server hardware.

How can you downgrade a computer running Windows Server 2003 Standard back to Windows XP?
You cannot downgrade an operating system. You will have to nuke the hard drive and reload from the beginning. This is a tough one to do because you have to back-up everything you want to keep and make sure you have all the drivers for everything in your computer. XP has most of the drivers for common add-ons and if it is the Disk that came with your computer originally then it will likely have everything you need. I have done this before. It is not fun but it definitely gives you a nice fresh clean start. Note: You can downgrade but then after using VM ware software. just minimize windows server opreting system and start XP.

How do you Telnet from a computer running Windows Vista to a computer running Windows XP?
The inherent problem in answering this question is that Windows XP does not have a Telnet server included, so there would typically be no purpose in even attempting it. You would need to install a third-party Telnet server (of which there are several) on Windows XP first. After the Telnet server is running, just open a command prompt in Windows Vista and enter:telnet substituting, of course, the correct IP address and leaving out the brackets.
