It then reinstalls XP over itselfs but keeps all your files. But its to late now

How do you back up? God, I'm such a technophobe!!! By a DVD burner. Its easier. Then burn everything to DVD. I think XP has its own backup, can't remember but you can also buy backup software that will make it easy for you. Or pop into your local WHSmith and buy this months copy of PCFormat. They have some backup software on their dvd for free.
