Hello Nanacy,
Vista is a good and nice windows operating system. I believe that Microsoft has made so many simplification in the Vista that it because so complicated and unpleasant to the users. This has made the windows users stay on Windows XP which does not make Microsoft so happy. To make as many windows users as possible to shift from XP to Vista they have designed the new laptops not to accept Windows XP. Your HP Pavilion DV6000 is one of those many laptops that does not accept Windows XP any more. I recently went with a friend to help buy a laptop and he choose HP pavilion but don't remember the model. I found that that laptop is running Vista and can not be reformatted to Windows XP. I suggest you try to install XP Office, if you are not comfortable with the Office 2007.
