Reinstall XP without loosing any files

Just to let you guys know who are planning on using this as a re-install for a possible corrupted system. While it is excellent to use for recovery of system data of a FUBAR’ed machine, it is not a replacement for a full install.

That is to say, if you cant boot your machine cause shits all fucked up, this will help you get the things you need off the machine. But it won’t clear up any virus infections or spyware problems.

It rebuilds the windows install but not from the ground up, the registry (where a lot of spyware hides) its largely untouched.

Nothing is as good as a fresh install of xp, which should prolly be done every year or so, since the installs get really bloated over time.
