Also I have a yamaha external cd burner. Do you think XP will pick that up b/c I don't have the drivers?

Well just to let you know, on my regular computer I am running a legal version of Windows XP Home edition. On my old computer I tried upgrading and that didn't work b/c the cd was messed up and I didn't want to talk to people in Bangladesh. To answer other questions. 1. Yes I entered in the CD...
