I had a black screen with error messages, so I
reinstalled windows xp, but I lost all my files, how can
I recover them, and did they get "partioned", can I
somehow do something to fix this.... "HELP"

Pat,

chances are slim. The normal answer would be to restore them
from your last backup.

Your files are still on your HD. You have overwritten
your Resigtry Files. I'm in the same boat. It appears
that you may be able to go back and recover your old
registry through doing another XP install and choosing
option "R" Recovery Counsole.

For details go to MS Knowledge Base and search for
Article 307545.
