My conf:

AMD-64 3000+ (939 socket)

MSI RS480M2-IL motherboard.

512 MB - Single DDR Transend RAM 400 FSB (PC 3200)

80GB - Seagate SATA Hard disk

OS- Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2

---------------------------------------------------------------------

I have bought a new system with above config.

Till now with in one month, I formated my Hard Disk upto 5 times.

Because i have poblems with XP and Service packs. Now only i got good XP.

I did the following things, pls tell me is it good or not?

I installed XP prof. with SP2(Ver.2149)

After that I removed SP2 old only(not format my HD) and I installed latest SP2(Network Installation Package for IT Professionals and Developers)

My question is,

Is there any chances to damege the windows XP now?

Can i continue with this, or I have to format my C: drive and install need fresh XP and SP2

And my next question is,

How many times we can format our new Hard Disk....?

Please tell some suggestions...

Well, if you ask MS you should be alright...but I wouldn't actually.

There has been issues with sp2 in the past...it's just doesnt feel right to me. :blink:

I would do a new install, and format your drive if you please...no problem.
