    you can search for the background....but to my knowledge XP is not forward compatible, especially since Vista is 64 bit...but they do have a 32 bit version so you might could find something.

    I doubt you are going to find that...like I said, Vista is 64 bit, while XP is 32...those applications would not be able to run.

    Vista is also 32bit.
    Just like XP has 32/64 bit variations, Vista too has similar versions for 32 and 64bit CPU's
