http://sft-cyber.com/Re%20Win.htm Sometimes a program, bad driver or conflicts that destroy or corrupt files will necessitate a reinstallation. WinXP will replace damaged or corrupted files without disturbing your data or registry settings so that these will still be available to you. 1. Boot from the WinXP CD 2. Select set up WinXP(ENTER) 3. Windows will find an existing copy of itself and give you the option to repair the highlighted installation 4. WinXP will copy the necessary files to your HD and install ============================== http://rogier.xszone.nl/windows/wintricks.html http://www.microsoft.com/technet/treeview/default.asp?url=/technet/prodtechnol/winxppro/proddocs/winnt32.asp http://www.labmice.net/articles/winntcmd.htm • Reinstall XP and keep all your current installed applications and settings . Go to the location of your source files {could be a copy of the I386 folder on your hard disk or the Windows XP CD} .

A quick fix to try before going all ballistic on the pc. Go to device manager, under mouse and other pointing devices delete the mouse. Reboot and let XP reinstall the driver for it. If that doesn't work--try a different known working mouse.
