I put Windows 7 on it! It was a interesting feat to get windows 7 loaded off a USB drive, but I love it more than ever now! Only thing I did was add another stick of RAM =)

I don't know what you're talking about. Move all the stuff you want to save into a folder on C:. Copy a XP iso onto the laptop. Mount the image and run it. Whats so hard?

It's how installed Win 7. The mount unpacks files it needs onto the HDD.
