I have a toshiba tecra A4 with windows xp preinstalled into the HD of the laptop. The preinstalled windows and drivers 'live' in a 2.4 Gb partiiton FAT 32 style.

How/Can I copy the 2.4 Gb worth of wondows xp and drivers onto a Blank DVD?

Then can I format the 2.4 Gb patition and use it as a D:> to store MP3s instead of just storing windows xp and drivers?

I think the best way to go about it is to back up all ur data ( documents, mp3s etc )! They are in the { c: } right?


Get ur xp cd and slipstream sp2 .

Format your HardDisk and while reinstalling windows create all the partions u need

As regards to drivers fetch new ones from the internet

i'm still newbie though

Can someone reccomend a 120mm fan?
By jsc, 10 hours ago:

Go to newegg. Look at the 12 cm fans. Make a table of rated airflow vs. noise (dBA). Don't consider really cheap fgans or fans above your budget. I further discriminate on the type of bearings. I do not like sleeve bearings.
