It's not Windows XP home, it's pro.  What makes you think it's home?

Oh good.  You should be okay then.
I have a programming folder, and I have nothing of value there

Running with Code has a new home!

Our species really annoys me.

You sure? I've only seen the 'crippled' startup menu choices in home...

What are the "crippled" startup choices that you speak of?

I'm very sure. 

That's the menu that comes up if I don't press F8 in time, if the boot fails.  If I hit F8, I get a screenful of options.

I'm terribly sorry for bumping this if this answer means nothing, but I was just looking over "the" Linux NTFS wrapper's website and it said it had a utility for decrypting encrypted NTFS

http://www.linux-ntfs.org :

Decrypting files: ntfsdecrypt is a new tool for decrypting NTFS encrypted files. Mostly stable, but needs a patched gnutls library

Yeah, I think I mentioned that I read that.  You need a file from Windows to use that though, which requires the Cipher.exe program. But I couldn't run Cipher.exe.  Unless I missed anything.

Oops, sorry.  I must have missed it.

Did you ever get it fixed?

I don't have access to a computer right now, so I have no way of booting it.  I'll post here once I do, for sure.
