I remember when I was young I had to reinstall windows about 3-4 times every month for about a year..
I just jumped right in blindfolded with an axe & hacked away..Broke a lot, but learned a lot too.
Thankfully I learned pretty quickly that if something aint broke don't try to fix it.
Now I only reinstall when I upgrade the PC's Gizzards..
I used to reinstall after so much as a driver update and like you ALWAYS when I upgraded a piece of hardware. I'm well over all that now, I just wait til bluescreens are more than once a day, then its an image restore or complete reinstall. I prefer the image, installing these days takes me more than 2 days. Because I am a hoarder.
Great thread Hippsie, I hadn't noticed it before. Maybe my stint being rather unwell cleared some cobwebs.
