guess i won't bother then, as it takes about a thousand years to fully boot up(god i miss XP).

haberting, i've been through six versions of Windows on three computers and i've never had anything like that happen before or since. have had to format my dinosaur due to virus corruption a few times, and my old laptop just flat out died after a Service Pack DL(now i'm stuck with VISTA, which sucks), but nothing's ever been spontaneously moved or renamed(that i can remember) except for that one time.

BTW, anyone know if/how i can join the windows dark side(ie. downgrade from VISTA to XP on my current machine)?
