Live & learn eh? ;0)

Next when you get a little more progressive and you learn how to
"Image" your OS......meaning, do your clean install, drivers, updates,
all that jazz, and before installing ANY software, save an image.
Anything goes wrong you can have your system back the way it was in
minutes rather than the hours for clean installs.......Once you start
installing your software & everything is running primo, image that &
save it..........I've been using "PowerQuest Drive Image" for quite some
time & heavily rely on it.....Ya think I'm gonna re-install all the OS's
I run??? Noooooooooooooooooooooot!
