Fresh install of Windows XP on R40

[MarcosV]

Hi All,

I've had my R40 for about 1.5 years with a 20GB HDD.. Space is running low and I would like to do a clean install of Win XP Pro.

However, I would also like to reclaim the hidden partition that IBM is using to store install and backup files.

Is there anywhere I can go to get a Win XP Pro install disc or maybe download it. I don't want the IBM recovery CD either as it has a bunch of software built in that I don't want on my system such a PC Doctor, Mcafee etc..

Has anyone done this before?

Thanks,

Jim
