    Well I totally boned up my system, and all I had was an old copy of XP. I still have the hidden restore area on the hard drive but dont know how to access it or restore from it. Originally there was a utility program that accessed it but thats gone now too ..

    HELP

    Well I guess it doesnt make a difference, I fount the program on the Europe FTP server and installed it but all it does is reboot the system and go right back into my current XP. I can reinstall all the drivers using it, just the complete reinstall doesnt work ...

    Nope didnt work ... I now have a set of recovery disks so I am all set, after the recovery the Alt & F10 started working again. Must have been a problem with the recovery partition.
