Did that 3 months ago. Good luck.
 
No, I did that last month 😉 I did, however, clean my temporary files today (windows temp file, internet crap, etc). I havn't done it in over a month, and it took FOREVER to delete. 😉
 
did mine about 3 days ago, tried raid and kept my old drive

raid 0 stripe: 2 members 30gb ata133 maxtors
partition 0 (boot partition) 6gb
partition 1 (main) 50gb

then the 80gb drive holding most of my data that does not need the speed benefit of raid.
 
Nope. Dropped XP and went back to 2k over a month ago. So nice to use an OS that doesn't crash like mad.
 
i will when my new Raptor comes in this week. i have been so bored lately. i have done like 10 formats in the last few months out of pure bordom

I just finished about an hour ago, now the crappy part - reinstalling the apps.

Install, restart, install, restart, rinse and repeat... wheeee 😛 I used to format every couple months just cause I liked the fresh install feeling. Now I realize that reformatting truly sucks and avoid it like the plague.

Amen, and good move. I will never use WinXP unless forced through electric shock or with hot chicks dangling in front of me. Maybe not even then.

IfXP is crashing for you, its because your hardware is faulty, or your drivers are faulty.

Sorry Mr. Gates, but XP is an extremely stable OS. Surprised you didn't know this.
