I tried to downgrade from vista to xp thinking i might get better performance out of my games on my laptop, but what a nightmare it is getting drivers to work in XP.
In the end I gave up and tried to run the F11 recovery and to my dismay and shock nothing happens.

The tip here worked like a charm from the RUN menu in XP.

Vista is now reintalling to it’s orginal factory settings as I write this.

Thanks for sharing the solution.

Thank you so much for posting this! I would have spent hours getting this to work. For those that can’t get into windows directory just search for “ubuntu mark partition as active”. Its a bitty trickier in linux but it’ll work too. Or you could do it in dos too.
