Such as when you have downloaded updates through Automatic Updates or Windows Update? Wouldn't it result in some files being downgraded to the version found on the install disc, while other files are kept in their updated versions? This sounds like a good recipe for a mess.
That's exactly what it does. The MS versioning system is, er, lacking. Repairing XP brings it back to the install state. Dotan Cohen http://technology-sleuth.com/technical_answer/how_much_memory_will_i_need_for_my_digital_camera.html http://what-is-what.com/what_is/operating_system.html
