Ken, if it was only trial, check under Start > All Programs > Accessories for an uninstall option..

BTW: do you prefer XP or will you upgrade to Vista?

It is my nephews laptop and he LOVED VISTA, just doesn't want to pay the $100+ for the full version.

I think he has tried to do the uninstall and had no results, I think he deleted the xp and now has NO operation system, besides the Vista,which is up...

I feel bad for him, but kids will do the darndest things... lol

I can't even get to the start menu, it only allows for the Vista product code, now that's frustrating.

You should have a "Windows" hotkey on that, it looks like a sailing Window..
Yes, no, maybe. Or how about the good ol' F1?
Maybe take a look at Ending in the Task Manager

The ONLY way you'll be able to do this is a complete rebuild.
Time to back up your important data and throw in the restore CD.
