edit: and your install disk for your operating system!!!
Once?? [img]graemlins/saywhat.gif[/img] your supposed to do it weekly!! frankly im supprised it only took 16 hours if you only ever defragmented once. and how is formatting your computer better than waiting a few hours?? it would take me days to get my computer back to the same state.

defragment, scandisk, viruscan, and spyware scan regularly!
