Don't count fips out just because the machine runs Windows XP, check how the 
drive is formated. My boss's new Sony laptop has XP Pro. Sony partitioned the 
hard drive with XP on C: which is formated VFAT and the other half of the 
drive (D:) is formated as NTFS and sits empty. Don't have a clue why they did 
this.
