Computer cleaning

  • Mood:
Yes, tomorrow is computer cleaning day for me. I am a little nervous, but have complete faith in my son (who will be doing all the work while I pace nervously). Apparently Windows XP gets glitchy after running it for more than 2 years and needs to be re-installed.
Most people love getting a new computer. I hate it. Why? Because I have to re-install everything! No I am not getting a new computer (this year anyway). But it does need a good house cleaning so to speak. So I will need to round up all my software so it can be re-installed after the big cleaning (reformatting). I figure it is much better to do this now before it eventually crashes on me. Kind of a controlled crash I guess! XP has already started doing weird things so it is time. Is it house cleaning time for you? Remember you should back up important files at minimum weekly! So if your house cleaning comes up suddenly, you won't be losing a lot of valuable files.
Wish me luck!
