Here is what I want to do :
I want to format my drive and then put XP on it (easy part but
lengthy)
After that I want to make a backup (using Acronis backup utility) of
the entire drive with just the OS on it.
There is a simple reason I want to do this - I am not the only one
that uses this computer, so I periodically erase the hard drive to
clean up the downloads and demos of games and such. In this way, I am
hoping to make it quite easy for me to format the drive and then just
RESTORE the winXP (using Acronis) onto it without having to go through
the process of REINSTALLING winxp.
Does this sound like it might be possible to do? I am not going to
change the motherboard drivers or anything in the interim. Is there
anything I should look out for?
Thanks
