Well why don't you use System Restore to a time you think might have been working fine?

Last time System Restore made me sane again after this ads kept popping up on my computer which no software could remove.. only system restore did the job, though if that doesnt work, get yourself Norton System Works and enable Norton Go Back and use some of the utilities of that.

jolene - back up all your media, mp3, data, etc to a dvd.

round up all your program cds including windows.

format c: and reinstall windows, install programs, and restore all data

itll take about 1 afternoon of boredom and it will pay you back handsomly with a smooth running system =)

seriously.. reinstalls should be at least a yearly thing for everyone

Yeh baby. "clean install! clean install! clean install!!"

Except... my clean install takes about 2 days due to apps insisting on storing their data in obscure dir's


Posted by G`Dave on Jun-21-2005 05:04:

Do a fresh install once, then use a program called norton ghost, to make an 'image' of your new, fresh, smooth running system onto some DVD's (preferebly.. or alot of CD's).

And anytime it starts to run like crap again, just backup all your data that wasn't there when you made the image, and use ghost to reload everything, just the way it was, takes a tenth of the time of actually reinstalling everything.

Then just copy everything back, simple.

throw it out the window, if it bounces back, you've got urself a keeper


mitsubishi back this method of system testing

seems like you've used the app Dave.

Norton Ghost works on the partition size right? so if you have a 40 GB partition with Windows and some appz on it will NG image the entire partition or just the portion that contains the data/install? any way to isolate it so it does?

from experience it's a pain in the ass when NG requires a shitload of blank discs because it's imaging the whole drive/partition.

So essentially you'd need to create a small partition for the windoews install plus any essential appz (office, antivirus, other) and then image that.

Now if I did that... say...

Partition A: 4 GB - windows + office + other
Partition B: 36 GB - remainder of 40 GB hdd

and I image A, when I go to reimage does that mean that I will lose B?

if this doesn't make any sense oh wells.


Posted by G`Dave on Jun-22-2005 11:05:

So far as I know, without getting into the really nitty gritty stuff, if its a 40Gb drive, the image will be 40Gb, ghost dosen't distinguish between free space and data. That being said, I believe there are compression options, but I haven't looked into these, and I don't have to worry about how big the image is.

If you've partitioned a physics disk into two seperate partitions, then you can reload an imagine onto one of these without effecting the other partition, provided the size of the partition is large enough to take the image.

The way I work it is I have a 10Gb partition with the OS, program files, configs, and all that biz, and make an image of that. I transfer the image to another comp on my home network, where it sits unused, and likewise my machien has the image of the other one.. if you get what I mean.

the other 110Gb odd of the disk that's on a seperate partition containing all my hard data, is uneffected.

I've set norton ghost to reimage the 10Gb primary partition once a month, so anything like documents and things that arn't all that big, but important, I keep on this partition and hence id backed up every month, if the disk is damages the worst that can happen is I'll lose almost a months worth of data.

Hope that's all fairly coherant.
