Dear Listers,
 
I have an HP Pavilion computer running WinXP2 home edition.  The recovery
partition no longer works.  I bought recovery CD's from them.  Those also
don't work.
 
I'd like to get WinXP2 Pro, complete edition to run on my computer.  
 
1.  My question is, how many hard drives can I install this on.  I have
several HD's for this computer and might want to load it on more than
one.  They will all run on this computer though.  Can I install it on a
freshly formatted HD?
 
2.  Also, is my motherboard an HP one?, or just generic.  I'd like to run
GoBack, but it won't run on my current system because it's an HP
computer.  When I install WinXP, there won't be any HP software.  Is
there any HP stuff on the motherboard that will prevent GoBack from
running, or is it just the software?
 
3.  How can I tell if my computer is a 32 bit or a 64 bit?
 
Thanks.
