Also, I attempted to install the Windows AIK , I downloaded the 992mb img file from that link, but there is no program on my PC that will allow me to do anything with that img file. I have Roxio Easy Media Creator and it does not recognize it as an "image" file. Anyway, I like that idea of yours.

Ultimate: clean re-install, need some advice..
COM were missing from my XP partition - obviously removed by Vista since Vista does not use NTLDR to boot.
