PC Troubles

    A couple of months ago, my brother downloaded this art program that killed off my MS Paint, since then I havent been able to get it back - I've tried going to the control panel etc... - But I can't find it!

    Because of this I have to right click on all my images and go to preview - none of the images show up as images either and I have to choose a program for them to start in.

    I have the floppy disk I got with the PC originally, would anybody know what folder to go into to re-install it?

    Its Windows XP I only got the Comp 2 years ago - I thought it was weird that they gave me a floppy too. I searched for that and I can't find it...

    Go to Start=>Run and type "mspaint". If nothing comes up and you get an error it will need to be reinstalled. Try this if it doesn't work.

    This probably boots into the hidden partition on your drive to reimage/reinstall windows.
