Does anyone know if there is a way I can get the old Yahoo Instant Messenger back? I did a quick restore to my pc, now the messenger is gone. I used it to let me know when my auctions are ending. Thanks for any help.

If you did a system restore it is still there.Check your c drive for the program.If you are saying that you had to reinstall your operating system and therefore need the program again, go to this site http://www.oldversion.com/talk You will find many different programs listed and a forum to talk about any problems with the programs.Good luck!

N0 problem sdb_ngc - I find these to be a great help when I am refurbishing an old pc.Here's one that many may be able to use bootdisk This is for all of us who do not get operating system disks or recovery discs with our PC purchases .Here you can download and create bootdisks for all the Windows operating systems,DOS and the six disk set up set for XP home... and even get drivers too.Enjoy!

Great news charliejo! Glad to know you are up and running again.I hope that the boot disc info is helpful to you as well...but that you don't have to use it anytime soon! LOL Have a good day!
