No. Registry restore is built into WinME and WinXP, but not Win 2000.

What about scanreg /restore from the c prompt in DOS to reset the computer operating date? Your right...zeros to the drive is easy. It's installing all the software, restoring all the backups, drivers, networking, sharing & settings that is such a pain!

Yup, this site is a lifeboat for sure. In many many ways. So while I'm at it.......a big time thanks to everyone who tries to help, no matter the problem.

I hope you don't mind if I scoot in here and ask a question myself.

I have Win 98. Tried to do Critical Update. There's no place to click for Win 98. Plus it wants a password for the upgrades - which I don't have.

Did they stop servicing this version of Windows?

That's the site I've always used, but they've changed it. I can't see where I can update my version of Windows.

Surely they wouldn't withdraw support without notifying people, would they? I know they plan to, but I thought it was a bit in the future.
