Removing 7 & reverting to XP query
I wish to remove windows 7 and revert to XP. The question i have is: I want to retain the Display functions which gives me the option of selecting Projector etc. Can someone please tell me if is possible to retain or load these functions on going back to XP?

First you need to verify that you can get XP drivers for the machine.

Why not use Windows 7's XP mode?

You need Win 7 Pro or Ultimate to use XP mode.

Or a credit card to go to Control Panel > Windows Anytime Upgrade and unlock the Pro version of Windows 7 lying dormant under your current Home version.

I would think that Windows 7 would not only include but provide better options for your devices. What exactly are you trying to do?
