Well, I've gotten pretty much everything up and running smoothly again. My USB ports work again, but my soundcard still wouldn't work--but at least my sledgehammer works perfectly. =) I'm only using up about 2.5GB of space on my hard drive right now, and the only things I haven't put back on it are my mp3s and my pictures, which I think I'll just leave on CDs until I need them.
