Should it make much difference?

Perhaps I should ask this in the BB section

Anyways I can always use the dial-up modem if I need to.

Anyway I need to be backing up first.All my images and art work takes up about 3 Gb alone.

Thanks for the support.

USB connection may require the drivers before it will work but I don't know to be honest as I connect via ethernet here. If it does it will ask for them at some point during the setup procedures.
If you don't have SP1 incorporated into your OEM install then I would advise downloading it before installing XP again and then installing SP1 before you connect to the internet so you run less risk of problems. Personally I would stay off the broadband connection until a firewall and anti-virus software is running
