Re: this may sound like a stupid question but...

I know the feeling - it as happened to me a time or two...

give linux a try. The good thing about it is that theres live cds where you can actually run it from the cd. I recommend ubuntu. The latest version (8.04) can be installed like any other windows program. Then on the boot, it will finish the installation. You can remove it in add/remove.

No matter what you do, make sure you have a backup of your windows or files you cannot afford to lose. Most likely nothing will happen - but unfortunately things do.
