After having a corrupted system file, I peformed an archive and install on my system. Nearly everything so far seems to work exactly the same as before except for:
  • There is a folder on my HDD called "Previous System" - What do I do with this now that I've archived and reinstalled Tiger?
  • In 'System Preferences' I used to have a section underneath the 'System' section/row that had a program called "Salling Clicker" in it; this program also used to run from my Finder bar, but it's disappeared from both "System Preferences" and the Finder bar - How do I get this program back and working as it was?

Also, is there anything else I need to know about Archive and Install, or is there anything I still need to do?

Cheers,

Clivey

A quick search at the mother ship returns:

Mac OS X 10.4, 10.5: About installation options

You could have easily found this using the Google search in Safari. Let's try a little harder next time.

Try reinstalling Sailing Clicker. If you can't find it, use Spotlight. That's what it's for. If that fails, download it again and reinstall.

(the Leopard Archive and Install is the same as for Tiger).

Sorry. I did search Apple's database but entered "Archive and Install" in the search box rather than "Installation Options" - it lead me to a different page with some of the information I needed but not all.

Massive thanks for the assistance though, I think the computer's just about back to "normal" now.
