Well, I have gotten myself into trouble!
I LOVE GoBack so I decided to load on my TC.
Now I am in a loop and can't boot to anything.
I only have a USB CD attached, and all the commands to get other boot options do not work.
I can't get it to boot to the CD to use the Compaq disks to try and get a a:Any ideas?

Yes---same thing happened to me. Exactly. I had to use the restore CD's and begin again. Be sure to install the service upgrade from the software installation after using the CD restores. Ask if you have questions---it was a frustrating experience.

Had to try alot and then I got the place where you can boot up from another drive. (This is best I can remember). Be sure to install the service upgrade from the software installation after using the CD restores. Ask if you have questions, I will try to remember better, this was 6 weeks ago---it was a frustrating experience.

Thanks, I guess this will be my weekend "job". And things were going so well!
I'll let you know how it goes.

What is "Go Back"? Why is it potentially dangerous?

thanks

GoBack is a great, more advanced restore program than what is in Windows XP. It is owned now by Roxie.
I used it in Windows 95 & 98 where it saved me many times.
Now it has turned on me.
