Well, it's finally time to reinstall XP again, it's slow as a wet week.

This time is probably the least painful install, as a while ago I bought removable hard drive cases. I just pulled out the current master, installed the new drive and started the process - it is a nice feeling knowing that at any time I can slide the drive back in and be where I was.

Once the new system is set up the old master becomes the junk drive, until the next time....

Mind you, it's still not fun.

I would recommend you invest in a program such as Norton Ghost. I use it to reinstall my HDD if I suspect it's corrupt. What would normally take me a day to do is done in less than 30 mins with ghost.
