Question: how do i access my documents from my laptop from another laptop? my computer says system32 is corrupt so im trying to access all my saved files in my computer. i dont have the xp cd, i only have the one that comes with my computer so it means i have to reinstall everything. can it be done using a usb connected to another computer?

Answer: well, you might have to reinstall xp using the cd, but you can move all your documents from the old laptop in several ways. one way is to slave your HDD to the new laptop, which i believe you wouldn't have the right equipment at the moment. the other way is to burn your files from the old laptop on a cd, and copy them on the new laptop. the other way would be to zip all the files you want on the old laptop and email them to yourself, and download them on your new laptop. another way would be to use infrared or bluetooth if your laptops have them.\nshould i proceed or is this enough?
