Thank you for the good tips. I reformatted the hard drives and did a clean
install of XP.
Sorry for the late replies, I do not receive the notifications. Maybe I
tricked myself.

I think the owner of this PC has installed XP again on a second partition.
There is 2 18GB partitions on a 40GB hard drive. XP boot is FAT32 on the end
partition and XP is NTFS is on the 1st partition. Magicjellybean product key
finder tells me there is only one product key. There is a large Windows
folder in each partition and lots of applications which is why I think the
WIndows folder is so large.
