I currently have a 160GB hard drive that I have
partitioned into 40GB that contains the XP-SP1 operating
system and 120GB partition that contains data files. XP
would only recognize the full 160GB drive after I
upgraded to SP1. Unfortunately it appears as if I have a
worm/virus and need to reformat my 40GB partition and
reinstall XP. My question is if I reformat my 40GB
partition and reinstall windows XP using my non-SP1 disk,
will I lose the partition or any of the data on the 120GB
partition once I upgrade back to SP1.
