pretty much normal.

depends on your comfort zone and computer savvy.

rsnt9,

your pc had winxp recovery console installed on it and that's why it appears
as an option when you turn on or reboot your pc. as you know, doing nothing
means it boots into winxp home. if you boot into the recovery console you
will need to know how to operate in a command line interface (no gui) and use
basic dos commands.
