Default A useful way to repair XP without reformatting.

As a typical procrastinator I merrily kept adding things to my main XP machine when suddenly everything stopped working. I had several corrupt files which knocked out my usb so I had no keyboard or trackball. I went to my usual sources and found this rather involved but very effective method of dealing with the issue. It's so good that everything was fixed and none of my settings or data were lost. Surf to this url: http://www.informationweek.com/windo...leID=189400897
I printed out all eight pages for future reference. If anybody uses it how about posting your experience.

Err.. You mean the repair-install feature? Been using that all the time.
