I was loading an "update" of my DVD software, and the whole thing crashed. Now it won't come back up. Unfortunately, my machine came with Windows XP installed, and of course no disk. So I was wondering, what would happen if I tried to load Windows 2000 using the disk I got with my laptop? I know the programs wouldn't work with the new OS, but what about my files in Vue and Word and Premiere and so on?? If I loaded 2000 and reload all my software, would I be able to bring up the old files? Please help!!!!
