re: Question about 'How do I uninstall Windows xp?' Thursday, July 24, 2008 at 4:37 am Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Bob Koomans (2 messages posted) Uninstall WIN-XP, I simply give the whole shebang the BOOT with an ACRONIS RESCUE DISC after I save all my files. It fixes a few other problems too, like an EVER-GROWING Windows program size. (Ever noticed how a new install grows from 3.8Gb to over 15Gb in only 3-4months?) - (allowing for 3Gig of programs and other files you put in on top of the OS) You then only have to re-install Windows and your programs. Once you have a good clean system, use Acronis Disc Image suite, and ghost a copy to a portable HDD. next time you can format the HDD with a rescue disc, and ghost the OS back into place. Better still, divide (partition) your HDD if you have space, and put another OS on the 2nd HDD partition (leave it UNALLOCATED SPACE) such as the Free UBUNTU, one of the easiest ones to use, a bit like Windows in ease of use.
