| 96349 | 2002-11-05 21:17:00 | I usually format my machine once a year if my PC is working perfectly fine, if not .. I format as needed... :D | mashimaro (2168) | ||
| 96350 | 2002-11-05 21:29:00 | Only when all the small problems start to get really anoying or something bad happens, which is currently about every 12 months. It was closer to 6 months when I Windows was my only OS. |

| 96351 | 2002-11-05 21:50:00 | Probably once every 1 or 2 months :D More often if I've fiddled too much, less often if I've finally got things working smoothly. I formatted 3 times yesterday :p Mike. |

| 96356 | 2002-11-05 23:10:00 | Every year or so would be my avourage, this year i formatted twice, once cause things were getting a bit screwy, and a month later because my HDD spat the dummy :_| .Clueless |

| 96357 | 2002-11-05 23:14:00 | about every 3-6 months. I install and delete alot of software which can cause problems sometimes. have a partition to save all my important stuff and a restore disk I made of all my commonly used programs and drivers. asdex |

| 96358 | 2002-11-05 23:42:00 | I use to be a regular formatter but i havn't in about 3 years now. There is no need to. If you have a problem fix it. As simple as that, why waste time with formatting. There are so many applications out there that help you fix and clear up things in windows anyway. Of course this only applies if you know how to fix most things, which i understand doesn't apply to everyone. |
