Googol of thanks to my computer knights in their shining armors, aka
Mr. Dodol and the Google, for the advice. I finally could get into the My Documents folder of the XP. Really, it's not fun to work with 18.6 GB worth of stuff --actually, a good chunk of it could be considered as junks.
After some necessary spring cleaning, I have 4 GB of the
creme de la creme and am in the process to back them up. Since the machine, for two months now, hasn't been connected to a network, and since I'm too lazy to bring it home or to bring bro's laptop to the office, I decided to just burn everything. Again, no fun, especially since I'm running out of empty CDs. Anyway, remember kids, Back Up is a 'puter user's best friend.
Okay, that makes me almost ready for a clean install of the XP. One question though, will that darn SP2 ever gonna work on my machine? Looks like time for another Googling.
