Hi,
While installing a new DVD my PC has suddenly lost one of the two XP
installations (on separate HDs) I have on my PC. I can access my backup one
but not my primary one (i.e. the one with all my data). When I use the backup
one I can see all of the data (on the primary HD). When I use the XP disk to
try a repair installation I have two options:
a) Jump into Recovery Console and then I don't have a clue what to do.
b) Reinstall XP onto the primary HD but the system warns me that I will lose
all data in My Documents.
Surely there must be some way of reinstalling Windows while keeping my data
and settings (cookies etc.).
thanks,
Montreal
