Hi again
Like a naughty child that realises further argument is futile, I turned the computer on this morning, inserted the XP CD and unbelievably it loaded as if nothing had happened!
XP working fine!!!
Contacted MS and activated my copy so all is well.
Trying to load Sky Broadband from the Sky CD now - not working!
Thank goodness for my MacBook Pro or I wouldn't be typing this Post.
Quick coffee then back to it!
