I format at least every month or so...  I can't stand having memory latency problems in my machine... Also I hate to have my registry get out of hand... The other reason is because I'm a privacy nut... I figure if I keep that thing formatted, and flash the bios out every month or so the Man won't be able to track me down as easily...

The reason I had to reformat is I had won a Great video card but it didn't fit in my motherboard so I replaced the motherboard and then I had to reformat to get my comp to work again. :)

I reformat once every 6  months but all my business emails (passwords and registration info) are kept on a separate disc for future reference...I even have Pogo Cheats registration info on that disk...LOL

Hey Fanatic,

Saving the codes is a good idea, but saving the proof of purchase is also a good idea. If you are forced to reformat your hard-drive or to replace your hard-drive or even to replace your whole computer, you will need new codes.

Considering I buy at least 1 computer a month and have owned hundreds of computers.

I have maybe reformatted a computer a dozen times (and none in the last few years)

I've got customers that "reformat" once a month.

Hmmmm...

Either you are a moron or have WAYYYYYY too much free time on your hands.

I had about a few of the autos, but when I had to reformat my hard drive I lost them all. How do I get them back. Thanks. Eric.

P.S. I have all of my receipts. 1 Paypal and 2 on my regular bank statement.
