Is it easy to reinstall windows xp from a disc. Is it really just a case of inserting cd and letting it do the work.

I think it would be fun to have a start up sound that circled around me as the computer started up.

Just curious if its okay to do this. Wasn't sure if the hard drive will need more power then the older AC cord can handle or whatnot. Its not some cutting edge computer, just a dell xp machine.

by the way, this is the cord im talking about::
