Default Can XP copy Vista files

When I try to copy files generated on Vista to an older XP machine (it
updated through SP3), the older machine will not allow me to copy. There's
a message about an incompatible DOS situation. Can XP read from a CD
formated in Vista (32)?

Yes it can, if you load the cd on the vista can you then copy files back to
some vista location?

The exact err msg might help
