I
ill
Running XPro SP1. Single home computer used only by me.
Within the next 30 days my subscription to Norton's Firewall and Virus
checker expire. I am going to 'upgrade' my video card from GeForce2 to a
GeForce 4. SP2 will be available to me. I'm on cable so downloading is
no problem.
I want to do a clean install. Format the HD.
Should I do this?
1. With the computer off install the GeForce4 card.
2. Chance the bios to boot off the CD
3. Insert the original XP disk.
4. Let the computer upgrade to SP2.
5. Let my 2 subscriptions to Norton expire and use the SP2 for a
firewall.
6. SP2 Have a virus protector? If not, buy only the Norton 2004 Virus
protector.
7. Install MS Office. (I already own it)
8. Install any software (games) I want.
Do I have the sequence right?
The computer is used for only web access and gaming.
Thank you, in advance, for your time.
