Yes, I agree trying to fix windows can be quite a chore, a clean install
is preferable. Once you have it fixed I would recommend backing it up
with acronis or clonezilla. I get very tired of fixing XP but it is
handy to have around for various reasons. Making restorable  images has
saved me hours of work.

Good Luck,
Arthur


Are acronis or clonezilla free? Any free alternatives?
