    HI,Heres where i am at with re-installing WINXP.
    I need to re-install drivers for WINXP so i can start up PC so i can transfer what is on the old HDD to a newer HDD IT APPEARS that i did not have enough space on old HDD to install drivers so i had a 64GB USB thumb
    drive and transfered a backup from the old HHD to it,now can i go into the old HDD AND delete whats on the
    backup run the DELL driver install disk to get PC running,update any drivers i need then either keep whats on USB or can i transfer whats on USB to the new HDD all of this is being done on the same PC,THANKS

    Thank you,what i believe happened was i was trying transfer to a external HDD and did not quite have it figured out on how to do it so that is part of the reason why i went from 69GB of data to 139GB'S of data so now if i delete whats on HDD i can install drivers.
