Default Acer Recovery Disc & Upgrading your XP PC

Well PickaxeFairy

From what I have found out, all you (or the tech guy) need to do, when the installation is complete, is re-install WinXP then run your recovery disk, that should restore all your PC's drivers, e.g. audio, graphics, etc.

However, as Peerless mentioned, you should backup your emails, documents, browser bookmarks and all important data files (and note which Directory/Folder they came out of) so that you can put them into the place your re-installed apps expect to find them.

Anything else you require or are worried about then just let us know.

PS. Later on, I shall continue "the never ending" story about the lady at my workplace and her continuing struggle to get her broadband set up.
