Any chance you have a computer from Dell?

I had Go back 2007 installed in a Windows XP Pro system. It started to
malfunction and technical support advised me to uninstall it using
add/remove
and Norton Clean Up tool. This resulted in a blue screen system crash that
had corrupted Windows XP Pro. Symantec Technical Support said I had to
contact Microsoft Technical Support - $80 up-front-fee if I had proceeded
with them. The system would not boot from the XP disk. nor the Symantec
Recovery disk. When reinstalling XP on Drive :C out of necessity, Windows
corrupted the partitioning on a separate hard drive. I had to spend $500
to
recover data from the second hard drive. The problem started by Go Back
not
working and corrupting files. Go back in 2007 bundle is a problem and
there
appears to be no satisfactory warning that it will corrupt Windows XP Pro
when uninstalled. Hard to recommend Symantec products under these
conditions.
I was also very disappointed to find in SystemWorks 2007 that Ghost had
been
removed and a much inferiour Save and Restore Program included. Yes,
bundles
make it cheaper but I feel ripped off compared to SystemWorks 2006.
Overall,
SystemWorks 2007 slowed my system to unbelievable levels and then
ultimately
led to a full system crash with corruption of XP, loss of partitioning and
loss of data. Beware.
