Hi all,

Just ordered WIndows Xp pro OEM from Newegg,

I did originaly have Xp home but it messed up and needed re-instaling...well i didnt have the disk so im gonna format and install the Windows Xp pro that ive ordered.

Just wanted to know if theres anything i should know before i install windows again?

Ive never instaled windows before but from what ive heard its pretty simple?

I have a Hp Pavilion system,Specs in siggy.

Thanks

Yep i wont forget.

What about drivers do you think?
Should my system be ok because i have intergrated sound,Intergrated graphics.
 
but i strongly recommend that you download the new drivers from hp..... even if you have no problems now

Yeah will do too,

Thanks for your help guys.
 
DEFINATELY download the drivers you have no idea how much of a headache ive got trying to get the drivers from a computer already reformated and had no internet whats so ever, (i had to go to my local library and ask special permission just so i can download drivers to my jump drive)

get drives,put them on a cd,reformat,install drives thats what i recommend
