That is a big Yes Grey, being in business I need to. This crash seems to have damaged my back up drive too though, lucky I have a 3rd in place for the critical stuff and a 1GB usb stick with day to day stuff on it.
You are so right about the time it takes to reinstall - re license Virtools, 3DSMax, sort out the ftp settings for all my web clients, shessh its gonna be a long day. But I have done this very carefully, I have tried lots of things to recover my original installation, including putting back the resitry which I had only just backed up that day - ut to no avail.
Back ups are the only way forwards, I may have to invest in a comprehensive "One Touch" back up a la Maxtor external drive...
Wish me luck people!
