ReInstalling Windows

Many users operate on the principle that in order to keep their machine fully optimised, they simply have to reinstall Windows every 3 months or so.
But no matter how often  I do this, I always seem to forget something.

"10 things you should do before, during, and after reinstalling Windows" provides a very comprehensive checklist.
You may need to register at Tech Republic in order to view this article, but it's free (natch) & opens a wealth of good-quality expert knowledge.

I think there is alot of writing just for 10 simple steps. Check out this menu on articles about formatting your computer

I second the recommendation of Tech Republic. They have dozens of useful "10 things" lists - and much more - about virtually every aspect of computing for both tech gurus and average consumers alike.

I differ. Some guys self-proclaiming as "Experts" in the site,
abusive languages if your queries appear naive to them. They
probably have an unwritten law that any body posting on this
ignorable site must be a professional. I strongly recommend
against registering at techrepublic.
