I can not install Microsoft Vista operation system. I had Windows XP Home edition on my computer and I have formatted partition trying to make a clean install of Vista. Computer meets hardware requirements and partitions are formatted as FAT32. Can you give me some hints how to install Vista, because I do not have a clue what the problem is?

Your problem is FAT32 partition. Vista includes lot security enchantments which can not be implemented if file system is FAT32. You should format partition as NTFS and then do a clean install of Microsoft Vista operating system. I hope that this hint has helped you and that you are now able to install your operating system.
