1. My cd/dvd drive has been broken for a while now, is there a way I can reinstall an OS without having to use it? I have an external cd/dvd drive, don't know if that can help.

2. If I do manage to reformat and reinstall my XP, will my dual-boot not work anymore? Will I have to redo everything? I'm kind of afraid of losing my Vista.

Thanks in advance for those who will help.
Fix your cdr/dvd drive first as you are making the job hard, not only for yourself but for others that help you.

Then come back and ask questions about what you want to do...
