Customer Reviews:
 Chance of working/destruction is random. High risk product., 2008-04-01
GoBack worked great for me (5 stars) on my Dell XPS laptop for 3 years.
I removed the stock 60 gig drive, put in a 230 gig drive partitioned into 30 and 200 gigs. After installing goback, I got the "not bootable" error. This makes it a 0 star.
Overall review: Great product when it works, but due to the risk of wiping out your system, 1 star (the minimum). Do not install, no not even think about trying this unless it is free and you have everything backed up first.
I've tried all the solutions.
* Reinstalled goback with Symantec AV uninstalled. Same failure.
* Having a Dell, I went into the BIOS "Security" area called "CPU XD Support". This is "Execute Disable Bit Capability". Someone above mentioned the solution was to turn of this capability in the Dell bios, and everything was great for them after that. Didn't work for me.
* Ctrl-Alt-G doesn't work when I can't even boot the HD.
* Pulled HD out, replaced with good hard drive with GoBack on it. Everything is fine. Put "bad" drive in external case and plugged it in. Blue screen that said the problem was GoBack.sys or something like that. Tried booting with drive plugged in, same error. A physical connection to the drive jacked up my system.
From what I can see, it is random if this program works for you or not. It has some issue to do with hard drives for me. It's great if it works, but if it doesn't you have to "go back" and use your windows boot disk to wipe and re-partition your hard drive, or use the UBCD (ultimate boot CD) and a bunch of work to see your data again (see earlier reviews for two methods of being able to see your drive data again after a goback destruction).
