Last time you did Wipe-Install for your OS

(1/9) > >>

Tatsujin:
For Windows XP Pro, had to do it every 6 months or less.

Vista Ultimate only one install and been running it since Feb. of 2008. Works like a charm and love it very, very much. So it's been about a year and 8 months since I did a wipe my partition and install a new OS and my other programs.

You?

I did it pretty much as frequently. I had to on my previous pc, on this one I did it just to avoid any potential problems. Last time was this past Sunday, but that was because I installed W7.

I usually wipe my xp once every year or so. it's around that time that it becomes spontaneously sluggish and buggy.

Yup, that's why. Besides the fact that it runs almost anything that wants to use something out of your system; hint hint, viruses, malwares, spywares and whatever other stuff they're called. Vista/Windows 7 secure that shit and won't allow it to run. Last time I actually scanned my computer was more than a year ago. I've prolly hit a lot of bad sites and had some bad programs running, but well .... Vista / 7 just own. With Windows XP Pro, I had to like find out what happened, get these programs running, waste more time and more time trying to remove them. Heh, no ... NO!
