Need advice on best way to proceed. I think my hd is getting ready to go south as its starting to make a "clunking" noise at times. Being on a small pension & with 3 in college i have to look for work arounds on computer issues. My concern is being able to re-boot if hd crashes before i can replace. I DO NOT have the original XP cd as i bought the system used. Also if i install 2nd hd should i move data from old hd to new & remove old or just leave in place? At my location memory stick is half the price of the hd. Is there a way to put on floppy enough to get the system running again just in case. Open to any suggestions.
Thanks
