mr_daemon Posted May 9, 2005 Share Posted May 9, 2005 my sentiments exactlySome times it's my fault. Sometime's it's a BSOD just a reminder that xp is based on dos. Anything NT is not really DOS based anymore, you know... The DOS front-end horror stopped with WinME (and damn i'm glad). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glorious Posted May 9, 2005 Share Posted May 9, 2005 I've never formatted my Windows 98 machine in 5 years, still works like a dime. :woot: Just getting my new PC this week though so I'll probably take more care of that. Laptop has never been formatted either. :pinch: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Hawk Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 I usually format ever 3 months or when the computer feels sluggish. Before when I used 98 I used make alot of Ghost images and would use them every 3 or 4 weeks or just format cause I was bored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
