More bad news..... I tried the re-install trick and it says, "setup cannot find a previous version of windows installed on the system." Nor does it find a Windows XP campatible partition, so it wants me to reformat/repartition.

Short of doing a reformat, do you think it's possible to install XP on another hard drive and retrieve my important docs/files from the original drive in a slave mode?
