You cannot be sure what is on there otherwise. Second - download and install all the drivers from the individual hardware component manufacturer's web pages. - Motherboard Chipset - Video device(s) - Audio Device(s) - Network Device(s) Etc. -- Shenan Stanley MS-MVP -- How To Ask Questions The Smart Way http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

What Shenan said and be sure to get the XP key before formatting if there is no COA sticker on the computer case and/or you don't have the key documented somewhere. This program will show you the Windows key and other usefull infos. http://www.belarc.com/free_download.html HTH
