I've installed XP from a CD and, unlike the systems I bought with the OS
pre-installed, there's no viewable recycle bin. Where can I find it?

thanks,

Richard

The path of recycle bin depends on the format of partition

The Recycler folder is used only on NTFS formatted drives.

%systemdrive%\RECYCLER
%systemdrive%\RECYCLER\Your SID# is your Recycle Bin.
SID# is for every user on the machine.

If drive is formatted FAT32...
%systemdrive%\RECYCLED
