    ok here is the problem, i just built a nice pc, and i have two hard drives in it, ones a 320 gig for storage and one is 160 gig for the operating system, i had windows vista ultimate on their, i hate it so i wanna go back to xp, i formatted the hard drive thinking that it would erase vista, it didn't when go to install xp it tells me that it vista can't find a file named 0479f or something like that, i formatted again and it still is looking for that file, should i just try to install xp on the 320 gig or is their to wipe vista clean off
