That very much depends on exactly how you installed it. What steps did you
take?

i installed beta version. during install it tells me it will create user.old
folders. I dont recall seeing any option to delete partitions.

pepper - you are not very "clear" regarding status. Do you have a dual boot
system - are you presented with a menu option to boot into XP or Vista? Do
you consider you have a "dual system" based upon the "Windows.old" folders?
What are you referring to by the statement "I dont recall seeing any option
to delete partitions".

You really did not detail the installation steps as requested by "Jane C".
