alright at this point in time i have windows XP Pro X64 edition which is giving me some problems with all sorts of things and i have a copy of regular 32 bit pro but when i put in the CD and try to install it it wont let me. is there any way around this other than just wiping the HD and booting from the CD?
no, windows does not allow you to (easily) downgrade
I have heard of people using virtual machine software, but they had the 32 bit version as the main OS.
That is also how you set up dual booting of Windows versions, you need to load the oldest one first.
Bottom line is you cant do it easily. It would take a very long time to do it all manually by replacing files and registry keys...
I am running XP-64 on vmplayer and have overcome many problems. What problems are you having. I may be able to help.

My machine is running XP-64 for some time now.. So tell us your problems, we may be able to help.
well i went to driveragent.com to check my drivers because i was having problems b4 and i updated some of the drivers that it recommended but my comp. still randomly freezes on a fairly regular basis.
Overclocking? Bad RAM stick?
