Pam14160 Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 but you'd still have to do a new install if you ever want to update the OS in the VM No. That is why VMWare puts out VM Player (free). . . :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Warwagon MVC Posted January 17, 2014 MVC Share Posted January 17, 2014 I think reformatting is excellent. It shouldn't take anyone days to get back and going. I'm usually up and running within a couple of hours! :) If it takes days, you're installing too many programs :p Reformatting SUCKS! I hate it. What a pain in the ass. Drive images all the way. neufuse 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
