I know this is a bad time to think about these things (after I have already purchased) but I realize that my new dell mini doesnt have a cd drive, soooo what am i to boot from when i want to format and reinstall the windows xp on it (God forbid it should ever crash one day)How do you run the recovery disk on the dell mini?You should be able to boot from an external usb cd drive. The only other option is to rake the drive out of the mini, put it in a laptop with a cd drive, and install it there, then put it back into the mini to complete the setup.How do you run the recovery disk on the dell mini?You can get a external Cd drive. Or a pen/flash drive.
