Reformat
16 years ago
Every year I do this, and I always forget something, hopefully this will be the combo breaker. I've forgotten things like game saves (lost my progress in HL2 and HL2Ep1 respectively over 2 years), important randomly found fonts, and the like. Almost forgot stuff on my desktop just now. More stuff is still copying. I'm also taking this time to organize my external HD a little better, since theres so many copies of full folders of stuff all over.
I'm also planning on putting ubuntu on a partition of my external just for the fun of it. I really only limit myself by ever trying to use a linux distro, but I have a hard time saying no to those awesome looking non windows or mac OSs. I tried kubuntu last and liked it, but I want to see what the original ubuntu is like.
Ah! forgetting my FF bookmarks. This is a bitch part, because I keep bringing over everything and never removing anything. I've had many layers of organization, but there's still so much to go through that I don't bother.

This is why I don't reformat. I have too much stuff scattered around. That's why when I had to replace my motherboard, I had the guy install Windows on my hardly used Terabyte harddrive. So yeah, my D drive is my old C drive and it has a duplicate system32 and whatnot.

OP
Heh. Well luckily I seem to be back up and running great. I've got games to put back on yet, but even with Ubuntu on as well, I've got like 60 something of 80GB. I think I somehow have 2 seprate installs of Ubuntu though because I put it on first, then when I figured I liked it, I reformatted for XP. Then put it back on, but it looked like the original was still there when I restarted again.
