When re-installing Win XP am I to asume that my computer will be wiped clean? Will I have to re-install all the drivers and software for network cards and graphics cards etc??

I had to re-install windows xp on my computer. I had plenty of disk space before now I have like 20MB. Is it possible that I have 2 versions of windows xp on my computer. If so, how do I get rid of the one that I don’t need so I can have my disk space restored?

My CD-Rom drive does not recognize or play any type of discs, I used the Trouble Shooting feature on windows XP and no luck, the last piece of advice it gave me was to uninstall and reinstall the driver, I used the Dell driver reset tool and it checked out ok, yet my CD-Rom still does not recognize or play disc, any suggestions, what are my options at this point.?

Thank you

Have installed in above PC a Brother MFC with Manf’s installation and control software. Diagnostic by software states all divice drivers are properly installed . However only printer fucntion and fax receiving from ext phoneline work but scanner function indicates cannot communicate with the computer and vice versa. The user manual says USB 2 required for the MFC . Can my existing motherboard Intel DB850GB (2001) support USB 2. The MFC is currently connected direct to a USB socket on motherboard . Printer is shown to be connected to a USB 1 port and will print when Print button is clicked from any print program from computer.Other functions do not work from computer or MFC. Have also tried installing a USB 2 PCI card which is backward compatible with USB 1 in the computer. Connecting the MFC thru this card produces same error. Does this mean exisiting motherboard support only USB 1 ? Can it be upgraded to support USB2 ? Can anyone help Pl?
