Yep! It's like someone else pointed out in another message, these things will
happen once in a while to everyone. And even moving to another non-Windows OS
won't save anyone from having to rebuild their OS from time to time. And giving
up computers all together isn't an option...so "no pain, no gain." Plus Windows
XP is the best version of Windows that Microsoft has ever put out. Well I'm glad
to hear you're back up and running. :)
