Just a note about XP and ASR. BE CAREFULL! The first time I tried it both my partitions were formated and I lost everything. I have two harddisks, My main harddisk has two partitions.
C: drive with my OS on it and a partition wit all my mp3's and digital photos and all my downloads.I stored my ASR backup file on my second harddisk and when I ran ASR I was watching and without any warning it formated both partitions on my main harddisk.. Lucky I made lots of backups. Now I put the ASR backup file in my partition with all my data not the second harddisk. Now it just formats c: drive, installs XP and then restores the backup file.
