I learned I had an unacceptable copy of XP installed on my machine,I bought a
valid copy from Microsoft.and decided to do a clean install,this did not
appear to be sucessful,I repeated the process twice.
I now have a machine with 350K + files on it as the files appear to have
just replicated rather than performing a "clean" installion.
Any suggestions as to what I do now would be very much appreciated
