Inbreeder software

My desktop computer runs the vista program.  most peripheral devices i find are not compatable with the vista.  if i were to retrograde my operating system to XP, would i lose information that i have already?  or, if i had another computer with the XP, will they network together and be ok?

In order to retrograde you'll need to backup all the data from the computer as it will not stay. You can network an XP to vista without any problems.

Life is full of problems, SOLVE them if you can, FORGET them if you cant. This is the secret of a healthy life.

Copy paste all your files to another drive (D, E, or F)

Format only C drive and load Window XP. ( New Installation)

All programes should be loaded on Drive C and your files sould be saved on other drives so that you can format C drive whenever there is a problem with Application Programes.

This way you dont loose any files but you have to reload all your programs.

the operating system does not matter what you have to get is a router.  with the router make sure is compatible with the computer you are going to connect to it.  Then if the other computer has vista and it's got Bluetooth the it'll pick up the signal.  Now i had a desktop with xp and a laptop with vista and they networked prewtty good. I bought a Lynksis router pretty cool gadget to connect all of your devices but of course they have to be bluetooth.
