No crossposting please.

It makes it more difficult to keep the discussions together. (Even though most people don't even read the entire first post, much less the followups.:roll: :))

What do you mean you "accidently installed XP to C:"? Your boot drive should always be C:. Programs want to install to the C drive. You'll spend a lot of time browsing to tell the program where to install. You can't changhe the drive letter, either. Don't reaqlly understand your problems, but I recommend you delete your partitions, formoat, and start again.
