Type 5195 in the reply box. It's at the bottom of that post. I know there's a way to ref. it with a link, but I forget. It only works for a REinstall of a new NT over an existing NT. There are pitfalls, such as inadvertently replacing a needed DLL upgrade during the new install. Another minus is you preserve the crummy application setup you had before, including it's registry pollution. Getting rid of that is one of the real benefits of starting from scratch. BUT, to quote a reference I forget, although I can't really recommend lying, cheating, stealing, smoking, drinking, and debauchery, hey, it's worked for me <GG>.
