Restore XP backup on Vista

Recommended Posts

My XP laptop crashed on me and I have another laptop with Vista Home Premium. I would like to restore XP on Vista. I have ISO of my XP machine & backup set on Iomega drive which were created using Retrospect 7.5

 

I have seen some articles about creating a partition & loading XP on it. Can I do it with XP ISO & then load backup set ? Would that recreate my old XP machine?

Primarily I want to be able to run some educational software that was XP machine only, is this possible? I am unable to install this software on Vista as the number of installs have expired & would require me to buy it again costing me lot of money,so

any pointers in this regard would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks for your help

Regards
