Yeah, I know how you feel. I have had that sort of thing happen two many times, so
now I keep backups.
With the right software, you can make backups of entire partitions. Or copy a partition
to an empty are on a drive. So I like to partition my drives to have more that one
OS and more that one or two places to store data.
In both 2000 and XP their is an option to move My Documents to another place, even
another drive. Do a right click, properties. (See screen Shot Below.)
Here is a link to a great free backup and partition program. Requires XP, but can
copy Win 2000 partitions as well as other standard partition types.
Even re size partitions.
Free XP Backup from Runtime Software.
No, I don't work for them. I just like it 'cause its free.
