i usually do a couple of times a month ... i need to right now but have been putting it off so i can play dod.


you can get some pretty leet imaging software programs where you can create a disk image of a clean install, then whenever you want a fresh install just install from that image. pretty cool thing to do. get your drivers installed, and service packs, then make that image ... restore from it and youve got a fresh install.

Sergeant_Scrotum 09-30-2005 07:54 PM

im going to buy one of those big suckers because im afraid my HD will die anyday now.

He must not be running anti pop up, or anti virus software when he goes onto his pr0n sites. You know they are loaded with adaware.

Arkan 10-01-2005 05:57 PM

I used to reformat at least 3x a year but have gotten lazy. Prolly only do it 2x now.

m00nraker 10-01-2005 06:01 PM

I do it every 30 days, due to my windows copy running out of client liscences, and only giving me 30 days until it shuts down the OS cause i havent activited windows yet mad:

imported_Fluffy_Bunny 10-01-2005 06:48 PM

spank:


Partition your drive and put your music/porn etc onto a different partition. That way it'll be there until the end of time, or until your HD fails, whichever comes sooner, and you'll be able to reinstall your OS without blitzing your dwarf scat porn.
