Sounds like your reinstallation of XP resulted in a second copy being
installed in a different partition. Open Explorer, look at the different
drives and report back.

Sounds to me like you had an external Zip (or similar) drive attached during
the installation. You should have disconnected all peripherals during
installation. You will now have to reinstall clean with the drive removed.

You are a true troll.You never have anything
constructive to say and you are always critical of others. Read some of your
posts. Your posts are mostly, if not all pure garbage. They speak for
themselves. Check them out. It seems most people agree with me.

Jim,

I don't see you posting anything other than this drivel. All your posts are
being forwarded to my contacts within MS and, hopefully, in a very short
time you should be banned from posting. You won't be the first person I've
had permanently excluded from these groups and you sure as Hades won't be
the last!
