Go out to a shop and buy a retail copy of xp, install. as on a new pc.

You may be eligable for a downgrade licence if you have vista business retail edition.

you need to go buy Win XP and then you can set it up to have both OS on the same PC by creating a partition

yes, but as i said it requires work to get it working. Dont do it unless you have a disk, licence and key for both and are prepared to reinstall and lose everything if it goes wrong.

If i am helpful, please give me reputation points.
