It took some time and a lot of scraping off the burned parts, but we all survived and/or were renewed. I hope the same to be true of your ‘puter and you.Sometimes Saintly Nickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16939152657551690867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2979810023442808000.post-44800111760310798952008-03-28T19:26:00.000-04:002008-03-28T19:26:00.000-04:00Again, thanks to everyone. I'd respond individually but after days and nights with tech support, multiple system failures and the end not quite in sight(corrupted hard drive still a very real possibility), I'm toast.<BR/><BR/>I apologize I can't offer more right now.

You should lose nothing at all in the way of files. Once installed all your registry files will be reset and in order more or less:-)<BR/><BR/>Once finished reinstalling do a microsoft update as you will need all the fixes and goodies Bill Gates has come up with since you bought the computer. <BR/><BR/>"One machine can do the work of fifty ordinary men.

Of course, if someone is irrational, they can be damned hazardous; like the time I was overlooking a deep gorge in the Rocky Mountains and some message like “Don’t be afraid, just jump over it” came to my mind. Thankfully, my fear won the argument.Sometimes Saintly Nickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16939152657551690867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2979810023442808000.post-7929793191927352922008-03-26T20:12:00.000-04:002008-03-26T20:12:00.000-04:00Oh, I'm so sorry!
