I have been spectacularly impressed by a product known as ReImage. According to their “how does it work” information, they analyse a Windows XP installation, figure out the pieces that are missing & plug them in from downloaded files, to produce a working version again. Even machines that have XP so damaged that they will not start can be revistalised by the same process started from a boot CD.
I started my testing of this product on my own laptop (yeah, I know, live dangerously) & it picked up a trojan that have been living with for nearly a year, after it came with the driver set for many of the webcams that I use.
The product also comes with a booster that automatically increases the priority of the task that you are running in the foreground, giving the impression of your machine working faster.
I have asked some pertinent questions relating to how I can use the same process without large downloads, as I expect to be travelling with a severely limited download capability.
If you decide to experiment with this product, please use the referral code r-493035 for a 10% discount & a bonus for me.
