XP Storage/Reformat
I have a question...My dad is running ME on his computer, and we have been having some problems with it, so we were planning on installing XP on his computer....He has a Dell Computer, that is running a WD100 (10.0G HDD), and I was wondering with a reformat and install of XP does anyone have any idea how much space this would take up? Thanks a lot!!

Just did this the other day and noticed a fresh install of WinXP takes up 1.7GB of hard drive space.
