HP Application and Driver Recovery DVD: which softwares are necessary to install for XP SP2 American version?

I wonder if someone can advice me on these softwares on the HP installation CD for XP Pro SP2?
("Application and Driver Recovery DVD"):

  Recommended software applications:
HP ProtectTools Security Manager
HP Credential Manager for ProtectTools
HP BIOS Configuration for ProtectTools
LightScribe Host Software
HP Mobile Print Driver for Windows
Windows Media Connect

  Hardware Enabling Drivers:
HDA Modem Installer
HP Integrated module with Bluetooth wireless technology
Broadcom BCM440x 10-100 Ethernet Drivers - Windows XP
TI-PCI 6x12/7x12 Cardbus Driver
Synaptics Touchpad Driver
Video Drivers and utilities
WLAN Driver Installer
Intel Chipset Installation Utility for ICH7

  Optional Software Applications:
HP Backup & Recovery Pre-Load Module

All the above software from the HP CD I have NOT installed when I earlier have re-installed XP SP2. Just wonder if I might need anyone of them? For instance, I will buy a portable printer soon (Canon) so I might need to install the HP Mobile Print Driver for Windows?
