When you do a clean install, do you have to reformat the hard disk Christopher A clean install to me is completely deleting everything on ones hard drive. or can you do a clean install over an old version of Windows? That would be an upgrade. Any advice on whether to go 2000 or ME? I want to avoid XP, I think. Almost everything I've read about XP is that it's a winner. I'm using Windows XP RC2 as we speak and as I get acclimated to this system I'm finding more and more to like. Why not wait for the 10-25 release and then judge the consensus. Ed
