Eventually found the XP disk at 10:30 and installed it onto HD two. Worked perfectly, except that I had to boot back into the old install to download drivers for the motherboard (and network card).
Now have Thunderbird, Firefox, Semagic, AVG and Steam installed, with CS: Source merrily downloading.
Advantages of online installers - I've lost my Quake4 booklet, complete with install key, which makes installing it somewhat problematical. On the other hand, I downloaded Steam, entered my user name/password and I now have access to HL2 again. Perfect!
Now, if I can manage to avoid the temptation to install loads of shite on this partition maybe I can keep it running smoothly...
