Then you are pretty much set Coggy, finish your back ups and downloads, get everything saved to disk or CD and then start the install process up
Once the basic XP is installed you may want to install the drivers that it asks for and then SP2 while you are off your broadband connection to minimise risk. Once you have the service pack installed I would install your anti-virus and firewall software, shutdown the PC, re-connect your USB connection for broadband and then re-boot the computer
