You will need to have a legal installation disc with license to be able to do that.
First you will need to determine if the old laptop with XP can actually support windows vista operating system. This means that you must find all the hardware driver files in vista for all the hardware that is installed on your old laptop. The simplest way to do that is to visit the manufacturers website and look under support>drivers/downloads>your computer model > and see if they used the same computer for upgrading to windows vista.

When you gather all the driver files....motherboard chipset drivers...graphics...sound...and being laptop > keyboard and touch pad drivers as well. then you should be able to just boot to the installation CD and install vista...once installed install the drivers.

You can not use the license from one computer to install to another...it is illegal and against forum policy.
