i don't think that there is any such program available. If you run sp1 and your pc will not boot you are most likely going to have to reinstall.

you can get a program to ghost your HDs that way you have an image of your drive in case it screws up

could u suggest a good ghost prog?
one that isn't for netwrok cloning or at least can be used to restore my system from another hard-drive (i have 2, each with a separate version of win2k, one for me and one for the brother)?
 
I hate to sound dumb, but i just got norton ghost 6.5, and have no clue how to make an image file!
