    I've been meaning to ask this for a while. But anyway...

    Story is on the first night I had my laptop, I was partitioning the hard drive and then the partitioning program crashed. So I had to switch it off and on. It wouldn't load Vista of course so I used AlienRespawn then it was fine. Next day it refused to load Vista again and Respawn wouldn't fix it, so I had to restore the system.

    Now however ever since the restore I haven't got AlienRespawn. Is there any way to 'reinstall' it?

    No...not if its damaged IMHO. If its still there perhaps you can recover it. Look in disk management(type it into start menu and choose "create and format HD partitions) and see whether you still have the partition and more importantly see whats in it...Just take a screenie and post here mate!

    I lost mine ages ago because Windows 7 doesnt recognize it and the proposed fix seemed way too technical for me.
    (off to work now, will look back later tonight..., Im late)

    ...type it into start menu? Okay, you mean in the search bar? Because that gives me nothing.
