has anyone else had this problem?

I guess so ... just didnt wanna have to run around finding all my disks haah :) thanks ill giv it a shot :P

Tom, if you do a fresh install all your files will be saved in windows.old. I just did this this morning and I am able to access all my files in that directory. I would suggest you run a back up first though.

I spent the morning downloading drivers and didn't get a chance to fill in my specs. But the downloads are working :)

bahaha ! i Am trying to install now, but i have had a black screen for about 20 mins ! i dare not restart
=]]]
bleh hope it comes back on ... i remmeber the install doing this when i instaled before though ? any thoughts?

all my problems are solved i just did the new install and wiped everything

Thanks guys
