Fox: You can get Norton Ghost Personal Edition and PowerQuest DriveImage at places like Staples, Office Max, ect. jarm: What I meant was do an image after the clean install. I usually set up my network connections, email, performance tuning, install winzip, then do an image and burn it to a CD. The next time I want to reformat all I have to do is wipe C:/ out and restore the image and install my apps. Rich
