Well, I got it back... Don't know why, but I had tried that compatibility thing before and it didn't work. Tried it again and then it came back. I then set it to no compat mode and it still works so I'm happy. Yeah, I had to get drivers for my printer, scanner, video card, sound card,graphics tablet, CDRW software update, lost my norton system works, and had to update windows itself with about 25-30 megs... My connection is slightly less than 28.8 so it's been a pain, but things seem pretty good now. :) Thanks for all the input!
