all.. my first post here. I just received a Genuine Advantage tag on my machine. I ordered a new certified copy of XP pro from Microsoft. I have had nothing but trouble trying to get an answer on MS own forums. SOI am humbly asking you Will I lose all of my data and have to do a complete reinstall of my hard drive, just to clear the genuine adavantage problem, to get a clean validation? What problems does this include getting a validation tool package what ever that is or what. Thank you all for your time in advance SEA18 from Florida
