I'm running XP home. I have already determined that reformatting my hard drive is a must, but I've got a question.
I've got two disks: one to install just XP, and one that installs XP, software, and drivers. I very much hate the process of uninstalling all of the bloatware that comes with the XP(+software+drivers), so I want to use the disk that installs just XP.
My question is this: do you reccomend proceeding this way? I am thinking it might be too hard to find the correct audio and video drivers once the reformat is complete. Also, will this basic XP installation recognize my ethernat, extra USB card? Is there some kind of wonderful website or driver pack available?
Thanks,
Steve
