I need help downgrading my HP Slate from Win 7 to XP (I've tried and Failed)

[ Edited ]

 

I need help downgrading my HP Slate from Win 7 to XP (I've tried and Failed)

 

I dont want this to be about why downgrade or a debate about win 7 vs XP that's irrelevant to me... I need assistance as I've tried and failed several times... maybe Im missing something!

 

So this is what ive tried in the pas week or two....

 

Intel Drivers that I used

 

1. I've Slipstreamed my Retail Windows XP Pro cd with Intel® Rapid Storage Technology F6 Driver Diskettes (10.8_f6flpy-x86.zip

Version: 10.8.0.100) [THAT FAILED]
2. I've Slipstreamed my OEM HP Windows XP Pro cd with Intel® Rapid Storage Technology F6 Driver Diskettes (10.8_f6flpy-x86.zip
Version: 10.8.0.100) [THAT FAILED]

 

3. Tried none slipstreamed just the CDs to see how far the setup would go and

 

The problem is ALWAYS right after it loads the XP setup files of the CD/USB (where it says ENTER = Contiue R = Repair, F3 = Quit) the tablet shuts off.

4. Bought a USB floppy and loaded the drivers on there for the setup... still it SHUT DOWN after loading files...

 

 

Am I missing something/using inccorect drivers or is this ABSOLUTELY NOT POSSIBLE TO DO?

 

Thanks any input would greatly be appreciated...
