Time for a Re-install I guess.
Windows XP. Things are slowing down, going wrong etc etc so lets do a re-install. I've saved everything to disc that we want to keep and all the drivers and programs (inc licence key) are ready.
I'm happy to do the install but...How do I wipe everything? Never done it before and I guess it's not a very direct method. Or is it?
Thanks,
Andy.

It'll be one of the best things you have done for ages I promise. It will fly compared to how it was before. Cheapest performance upgrade that you can do.

Not as good as a clean install, you then get rid of all the crap you've accumulated over the years.
It is easier if you are not confident abut what you are doing though.
