Worry not - I know, it's easy for me to talk <g>. Someone will help dig you out, then you'll wonder what all the fuss was about ;-)

There isn't one of us that didn't want to mess our pants at one time or other trying to fix computers. The funny thing is once you have gotton over the initial shock of being in a whole you don't know how to cline out of, you start thinking again, and suddenly ideas take root and before long with a bit of help you are passed that little hurdle and wonder why you thought you were never going to manage to solve it. So I would ask you first if you have another computer to talk to list about should you get locked out for a while you are sorting out your problem.
Then begin again. I haven't followed this thread so I don't know where you are but cheer up , remember you can always slap dear old windblows back again if all else fails , they must of given you some backup disks of some sort. I know you don't get MS isnatallation discs anymore with many OEM computers running XP. But they usually have some sort of backup facility, if not then make your own first.
