I recently ecountered a problem w/ my XP Pro laptop that
caused me to reinstall. My problem is that I lost all my
settings from my previous install. Is there anything I
can do to recover any of that information? None of my
programs (i.e. office, kazaa)work because they are not
installed for the current user. I tried to login under my
previous username, but it is not recognized.Any help
would be greatly appreciated.

TIA

Phil
