So if i did use it windows updates would be able to instal all the drivers i need?

SheepsAholy:
You'll be fine if its xp should have 2 cds i believe one is the installation of windows and the other is drivers. Or at least that's how my old xp was. do the installation disc first then the driver disk. that is if you're wanting to restore your pc and erase everything.
