If you need some help I can provide that, or the XP Pro cd if you want to borrow that. Upgradeing from ME to anything is a bitch. Most people know ME was the worst O.S. they put out.

yea, burn what you wanna save onto a CD, and don’t worry about formatting it… XP will format it in NTFS or FAT32 whenever you go to install it…  
umm… can’t meet today… but if no one else has helped you out by tomorrow evening, give me a shout
