Can it be? I had a power failure this morning. I have a UPS for each computer, connected by serial port and they reported that they were shutting down correctly, however when I came back up my main dev machine is pretty badly mangled. Had to go into safe mode and get rid of some of the start up stuff to even get loaded, now just strange things - Access asks me if I want to register my copy, the desktop is totally re-arranged, MS Messenger looks different, Norton utilities won't run at all, Norton defrag says it's in a bizarre location etc. Sounds like a registry problem to me. So... is there a backup somewhere? If not, why not? John W.
