I just downloaded to my computer hard drive, a copy of WindowsXP SP2 (266mg) from the Microsoft website. I haven't tried to install it but am about to
copy it to a CD. My WindowsXP CD (496mg) that I got with my computer is
about 2 years old. If I reformat my HD, would it better to use the later CD
I made from the download, instead of the older one?
