Yep, SP 2!

I have tried everything, windows update etc and am absolutely stuck!

I don't know what to do with the drive , I don't know how to format and my whole system is crawling since I installed the wretched thing!

Talking try this

well i think i've sorted out my system, did a complete format and rebooted with the disk i got with the pc (kept in a safe place best advice i,ve been given) then before i did anything installed sp1 then sp 2 then reinstalled all my software etc and it seems to be the best way to get it around it (it,s a pain but my system was i need of a spring clean anyway) if you cant do that or aint got the time you could try and go to your device manager and unistall your drives then turn off and on again to see if windows picks them up that way then it should hopfuly find the drivers for you or you could go to the manufacturers web site to get them manually (try windows first)
if you need any more help let me know cheers bandit

Unfortunately for Jamie, he/she does not know how to format the system! May have to visit a shop and pay the technician to do it for you!
Unless someone here cares to take the time to type it out for them! Well formatting is the easy part, installing everything (drivers etc) is the painful part! Not hard just painful!!
