I have an IBM thinkpad with win xp pro. the primary
partition is 17 GB. The thinkpad came with xp preloaded.
I would to like to format the hardisk, divide it into
three or four smaller partitions with cluster sizes of
4kb and re-install the xp from the hard disk preload. Now
i would like to know how this can be done... secondly i
just downloaded and installed sp2. Now if i formatted and
reinstalled xp will the sp2 files be present on the dump
or would i have to go through the entire process of
downloading it and installing them all over agian?
Would appreciate any views / ideas on this
thanks
