Right. Well, I'll just talk to myself then. Two questions. First, why does
this posting not show up when I search for kb835732? Is that why nobody is
responding? Or is this just hopeless. If so, I wish someone would just tell
me, because then I could get on with the business of re-installing XP Pro.
Several people at work warned me that fixing this (and many other Windows
problems) would take far more time than just deleting the OS and
reinstalling.
