Have you tried a restore? If you back up now it would seem to me that you are taking your problems with you..??? You clean the slate but restore the same problems...NOT. I think I would back up ONLY anything you have created. Data files you don't want to loose and get rid of anything else..reformate and start over THEN add back what you saved. ----- Original Message ----- From: <sandy1943@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <pctechtalk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, February 08, 2005 10:08 PM Subject: -=PCTechTalk=- reformating hard drive. I want to reformat my hard drive to get rid of all my problems... so now what's a good back up program or should I just use Windows XP? Major problems with Outlook and outlook express as well! And if I do a back up, and then reinstall.......... am I going to create the same problem? What exactly do I back up, just the word files etc or the program themselves or............ any and all advise is welcome and appreciated!
