vista startup repair

Hi all!

Just a quick question,

When I do a startup repair, what will I lose?

Since Repair only operates on the system files, you shouldn't lose anything.

What did you hear about Windows Mail?

Startup Repair has no effect on Windows Mail.

That just led me to think (hope) that something would be rolled back to
a young prestine untouched state and not the dirty full of s..t one i am
wrestling with now.

made backups of my photos and documents, but installed programs so now when
I insert a SDdisk it will not download my pics have to use USB port...

That is sad,
I did it, I have external backup hdd but I didnt need to do anything,
every thing is back to normal.
The reason I started this thread was a hardware change I did, wich led
to one of my hdd changed assigned letter with the dvd drive without me
noticing and my cp was a bit stuffed for a week or so, couldnt use
startup links and some of my programs etc. But as said earlier it is all
back to normal and I learnt heaps in that week of panic
