Hi, I have a HP Pavilion 304w desktop PC with windows XP
and I would like to reformat drive D;(Maxtor 2F040J0,
FAT32, 5.26GB). This drive is named HP_RECOVERY and
contians a bunch of locked files. I have all the recovery
options i want on CD's and floppy's and want to use this
drive (since its faster than ntfs) for MS flight simulator
04.

Can I do this? Do I need to move some files to C: first?
Will my system still function without it?
