I just wanted to throw out a suggestion here. When you reformat your PC. Get a copy of something like Acronis True Image. When you have everything installed and working as you want it. Make an image (or two, one on CD and one on HD). Then you can save time by just reimaging your PC as needed. No fuss no muss. Tie this in with a good backup routine and you are laughing.(http://www.acronis.com/homecomputing/products/trueimage/) (not an affiliate link)Hope this helps someone.PS there are freeware versions that do the same as Acronis.

This is kept on an external hard drive, a flash drive, and I print it and keep it in my fire safe. I DO NOT keep a copy of that file on the computers I have connected to the internet.I keep an external hard drive just for backups. I leave it unplugged from my computer and my network and once a week I transfer changed files from the week to it. I write on a calender when I did this so I don't lose track of backing up regularly.Last, when I purchase a program i.e., Adobe Illustrator, I save a copy of the raw download file to that external hard drive. I create a folder named like the actual program and keep the file in it because many of the download files have criptic file names.
