    Hello,

    I have recently purchased the subject laptop which came with an 80gig drive. No WinXP CD came with the laptop. Instead there is a recovery partition (7gig) on the hard drive of which I have made the two Recovery DVD's from.

    If I replace the 80gig drive with a 120gig drive, will I have any problems re-installing everything onto the new drive from the Recovery DVDs?

    I just want to be sure before i proceed on this course of action :eek:

    Thanks
