do you need the stuff that you added since you chagned to vista? if not just take the Windows.old folder and put it on a DVD or another drive, depending on how big the file is. otherwise, to backup you pretty much just have to pick and hcoose what you want to keep, then transfer it to another kind of media. there is no magic program that will automatically know everyhting you want and be able to transfer it back to XP. also, be prepared to reinstall all the programs you want that dont come with XP. gluck.
