Is there a way? 10.5.6 messed up my MBP with the issue addressed here:
Apple - Support - Discussions - Scrolling Distortion in web browsers ...

What is the easiest way to do this since I don't have any previous copies of my system to revert to? I have a hard drive large enough to hold two of my MBP hard drives though. I also have the 10.5.5 disks ready to go. I am looking for a solution that will keep me from having to painstakingly load every thing over again. Any ideas?

Use carbon copy cloner or superduper to back up your 10.5.6 system

Reinstall 10.5.5 using a fresh install

Use migration assistant in utilities to move your apps and settings back to that clean 10.5.5 disk
