.... windows is soooooo friggin brain-dead. i assisted
a buddy to restore their box with ONLY eXPensive; first,
wiped out all partitions using the eXPensive "partitioner",
then created an NTFS and then got to the install step
and it said, "...does not contain a valid windows partition"
and the friggin partition was CREATED BY THE WIN INSTALLER"

why ANYONE continues to fight with that friggin cr@p is
way beyond me.
