Reinstalling Microsoft
Before You Begin
If you are considering reinstalling the Windows XP operating system to correct a problem with a
newly installed driver, first try using Windows XP Device Driver Rollback. (For information on
Device Driver Rollback, see your online User's Guide). If Device Driver Rollback does not resolve
the problem, then use System Restore (see "Using Microsoft
page 28) to return your operating system to the operating state it was in before you installed the
new device driver.
NOTICE:
Before performing the installation, back up all data files on your primary hard drive. For
conventional hard drive configurations, the primary hard drive is the first drive detected by the computer.
