XP disaster
My new computer has xp installed. I just tried to move
files from my old win 98 computer to my new one using Intellimover. Now, I cannot shut down my new computer except by cutting off its power. How do I remove everything (programs and files) from my new computer except XP, so I can start over again? Thanks very much. |

Steve;
The best way would be system Resto Start/All Programs/Accessories/System Tools/System Restore Then choose a date/time before problem started.

Hi Jupiter -- thanks very much for the fast and very
effective response. I restored my settings back to the beginning and proceeded successfully from there. Now, I have another question. How do I copy all my email messages, address book, and message rules from my old win 98 computer to my new xp computer?

Hi Jupiter -- one last question (I hope). I have tried
to load Norton System Works 2003 twice. Each time, I was able to load it but each time afterwards, I was not able to shut down my computer. Thanks to your earlier advice, I went to system restore and got out ok. But, I really would like to use the System Works, or at least the anti- virus and utilities portions. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks again. Steve -----Original Message----- Your welcome Steve.

Steve;
Perform Live Update (you may have to do it several times) After you can reboot and get a message that you are up to date with Live Update, try shutdown again.
