Can't go back to XP from Vista

I installed Beta 2 as a upgrade. I am trying to downgrade back to XP because my sound and a few games don't work. It gives me the option at the boot menu of starting Vista or a earlier version of Windows. I selected that option and a white bar appeared at the bottom of the screen......It just sat there. I couldn't see any progression for a hour so I restarted my pc. Can anybody please help me?

The option for the earlier version "should" start XP...

Might look inside Vista for the Go Back to XP option..Might be in Add/Remove Programs.
