Thank you very much!  It did help me!  In fact, it saved me HOURS
of reinstallation... I had already began a clean install on
ANOTHER hard drive (thank God I didn't do it on the one that
failed booting) and then made an image of it with Ghost.  So next
time something "bad" happens to this system, I won't spend 2-3
hours just reinstalling Windows and all the right drivers and all
those small utilities on my computer like WinZip, GetRight, etc.
:-)

Everybody should use Ghost (or a similar software) to make
themselves a recovery disk... or at least ask their vendor about
getting one for their new system when they buy one! hehe!

Thanks again!
