the easiest solution

i came on here wondering how possible it is to reinstall my licensed xp on my laptop - without the discs, but reading through all of these. I seriously recommend going to www.demonoid.com and getting a not so licensed version, in the time it takes you to bounce around your cash, your brains, your patience... gee. Though in my case I will do both :)

Also. in reply to the guy with fonts etc. Get an ext harddrive and chuck stuff on there. fonts take up no room but the main files can cover your whole desktop and harddrive if you dont have things arranged tidily and nicely. Thats where having stuff externally is very handy. Otherwise it looks internally and externally like a 13yr old girl's bedroom.
