remember kids, the frequency of reformats is not equivilent to your penis size OR your understanding of computers... in fact, the more you reformat, the dumber you are ( I dare say )

I'm having hardware problems (I think) and I've been trying all possible software, OS and BIOS permutations to rule out any type f software problem. Seems some piece of hardware is messed so I've just stuck on XP and am gonna wait it out until March when the socker 939 A64s are out.

i chose whenever it needs it.

i used to format every month because i woudl screw around so much.. tweaking it.. but as DSN said.. don't install crapware and keep it clean.

that's what i've been doing.. and i make back ups of "my documents" every 6 months.. recently... i just backed up 5GB :hmmm: to 8 CD's.. thats too much.. i need to buy a Raid card and add 2 more HD's to the 3 i already have.

3thousand posts :ninja:

You can backup warez onto a single CD and still have space. Not that I would know, of course... :ninja:
