Like I said in which I think was your thread.. Some acer desktops cannot support XP. Ive had 1 acer desktop with vista come in and the guy wanted XP no matter how much it would cost.. Unfortunatly only a new system would help because no drivers supported the xp, only vista... When we tried to push it anyways we would get the bsod... If you want a XP system best bet is a whitebox not a prebuilt unless you know it has xp drivers to support.
