Mick,
> . I reformatted and put the oem version on.
Do I correctly assume that your only option is reformat, not a rescue
disk or system. The computer companies have gone back and fourth on
the kind of rescue system. First they were rescue disks with the OS
and bundled applications and of course hardware drivers. Then the
tried to save the cost of the disks by putting some kind of rescue
partition on the computers. But my last two PCs have gone back to
rescue disks. I'm guessing that too many users managed to wipe the
rescue partition. I managed to do that on my brothers computer.
My response was to get Norton Ghost and then clone the C partition to
a spare other partition on the drive. That has worked fairly well.
