Re: SP3 vs McAfee led to Norton disaster Update: Attempting to restore a previous image from my tape drive within the existing Win2k program just led to a corrupted mess. I expect I will have to split my RAID 1, repair one hard-drive's C: partition, get the tape backup program (Onstream 1Safe) working on it, delete the "C:" partition contents on the other hard drive, restore to it, and then boot to the other disk. If that works, then remirror. Alternatively, if the previous doesn't work, I have yet another, non RAID drive formatted for operation on IDE1 running Win2k SP1 that I could re-install and use for this recovery process. I am hoping I can get to last Sunday morning's image and then try SP3 again after I've contacted McAfee.
What a pain in the keister.
Also, I have reviewed Norton's web site forum for like service issues. I was disappointed to find that few of the requests for help since SP3 came out have been answered, and no-one seems to have had a similar problem. I have not yet called McAfee's $$$ hot line to find out about fixing their glitch that started this, or maybe it was SP3 that should be blamed.
