Hi
A friend has a hp pavilion 900.
It is completly trashed , in that Nortons Antivirus finds 250+ files whiche are wffected with womrs etc , adaware got up to 7000+ criticla objects then failed. Notepad , IE , Kodak easyshare and loads more software give virus warnings through Nortons.
He has decided to wipe it clean and start from scratch. He has no windows XP disc so we will be buying a copy tomorrow. Will this install straight on , or will there be issues with drivers.

There are potentially issues with drivers missing on the Windows XP media, for
sure if the computer was designed and built after XP was packaged up and shipped
