Tony,

Your friend may be referring to the fact that it's best to have a "clean" 
install, not installing over the top of an existing version . . ..

Others will know better than I do!  <Smiles>

  Subject: [access-uk] Reinstalling Windows


  Am I correct in thinking that it is possible to reinstall Windows from the 
same disk as it was taken from the first time it was installed on the original 
computer, and that you do not need to have a totally new copy of Windows each 
time you reinstall it.  I have just been involved in  some discussion on this 
topic with a friend.  He argued that a completely new copy of Windows needs to 
be installed every time you install it whether or not you are installing it on 
the computer that it came off or not.  I am having some problems and the only 
way round them seems to be to reinstall Windows XP on one of my computers that 
is giving me problems at the moment.  

  I hope you understand what I mean, I have a feeling that this is not very 
clear.
