Im just finishing up the backing up and going for a new install of XP pro. I was going to go vista but I dont think my laptop could cope as it only has a gig of ram.

Hopefully a nice fresh install speeds things up as the laptop is getting abit slow in its old age (1.5 years :lol

So I might be back on later

Unless I break something
