XP Pro SP2 became unusable after some STOP 0xD1 and 0x8E messages. System
restore wouldn't run and repair install failed so I did a full Windows
install. I thought I would make a pause before putting all my programs back
to see if this group can help me avoid any blunders. So far I've done
nothing except install the ethernet driver and validate Windows.
I'm wondering what to do about all the stuff in Documents and Settings.
There are now 11 profiles: Administrator - All Users - All Users.WINDOWS -
Default User - Default User.WINDOWS - My new user name - My old user name -
LocalService - LocalService.NT AUTHORITY - NetworkService -
NetworkService.NT AUTHORITY. Can I do something about all these folders?
Some programs weren't working well previously, especially Creative sound
software and Norton Internet Security and I suspect corrupted files
(re-installs did not fix). Should I try to delete all traces of my
applications before I put them back?
If any of you have had to do a restart I would appreciate your help.
Regards Lee.
