Those nag screens absolutely killed me when I first started using Vista. Fortunately for me, I got help with a script someone @ work coded for me to take care of the problem. Let me tell you, for the average user, this is more of a viable option. I am also a proponent of TweakUAC: It literally tricks the OS into thinking it's still doing it's job, but by suppressing the alerts for admins (which is key in this day and age), so we can go about our business with our daily activities on the computer without having to deal with that. Besides, who would want someone who had no computer knowledge to be poking around their computer anyway unless one has a limited account set up for them, right?

The only way to do this would be to format the computer and then install Windows XP. You can do this by booting from the Windows XP installation CD. Hi Samuel,
