Unomas--

Thanks much for the followup. I included information above on 4/11/09 as to
how to make a Startup Repair disc from Vista SP1 or newer or alternatively a
Neosmart website, and hopefully it will help people when they don't have a
Vista or in the future a Win 7 DVD.

CH- thanks for all that info. AS a follow up to my situation, she found
her os disc. So, I loaded vista up no problem ran through the 100 or so
updates and gave it back to her, so she could load whatever it is she
needs (instant messenger...etc)
thanks again
