Anyway to roll back XP to a previous installation?

[zener]

I was using Partition magic 7.0, installed today, under xp to format some linux partition of a separate hard drive(XP in disk C and linux in disk d) and the screen went blue. After that XP want to send a report to MS everytime I reboot. Anyway I can return to my version of XP before the installation of Partition magic? Thanks,

Restore to an earlier date will not undo the partition you created. What you reaslly should do is call Microsoft and let them straighten it out. You have uncovered a bug in their alleged activation procedure. Your XP thinks that it sees different hardware and a virtual drive partition created post XP setup should not be that. You have a legitimate complaint, and their obligation is to fix it for you.
