That's not an option with this particular PC. there's no boot floppy and they say the original restore disc won't work anyway for this particular problem - so that's why they're sending new discs.
I'm just SO grateful our eldest son knows what's what as I wouldn't know where to start! last time I had a major disaster was 1998 and windows 95 - and that was easily restored with the boot floppy. I must admit i also went nostalgic for my Sureshot70 and cheap film
It makes you realise how dependant we are on the PC for processing our own digital photos.
