I don't really need all the drivers some people can't live with out, no sound drivers, wouldn't bother me, and any thing to do with games isn't needed, as long as I can access the internet via explorer, & my emails, store all my folders with all my WW 1 pictures, what else do I need.

It has another small partition that stores the restore data, the two main partitions C:\ & D:\ are the same size, C:\ contains the present operating system, D:\ is empty
