Justin, my missus has an OLD laptop, that is really quite crap, but she only uses it for her ipod tunes.
I got her a new ipod nano for christmas, and upon plugging it in, it says that the latest version of itunes is required.
Now ive tried hooking it up to the net and it just wont hook up to t'internet
Also wacked the new itunes programme onto a pendrive, but need the new MS service pack to unload it
Is there any way of totally reformating it (ive backed up everthing she needs already) and wiping everything (theres loads of sh1tty programes on it that her mum used to use) and starting from new
Doing my napper in

Van man was saying I didnt indicate yada yada yada and was quite agressive in his manner, I kept my cool as I knew I did indicate (pet hate is people not indicating). Funnily the witness came over and told me it was van mans fault, he had seen me indicate etc etc. Van man went over to witness to ask what he had seen and witness said that I indicated and he just pulled out. Van mans personality changed then and he was very apologetic
Good job im chilled and laid back as I actually felt like knocking him out!!

boot up from a windows xp cd, it will give you an option to format, just format and re install the operating system. If there is a problem connecting to the tinternet then just get the latest service pack from a different pc, save it to a pendrive and then install the latest pack from the pendrive

Yes very easy - do you have a windows disk though?
some times its good to do a full reinstall and start a fresh as it gets rid of all the crap thats built up

its called Old Road in hyde, its a mini roundabout thats sort of elevated. I always go around them not over like most do as its what your supposed to do, and also my car is low so it would scrape!
