Yep.


I throw everything on a portable hard drive (or my network server) and then wipe the PC and reinstall.

I installed Windows 7 last week, took me 23 minutes or so....including wiping the drive. Lost 0 files.



My brother's at-home-supercomputer (he does animation rendering, so I built him a latest and greatest PC, then overclocked it).....took less than 15 minutes to fully install Windows 7. Not bad!

Don't I recall telling you to buy a portable hard drive to copy all of your files to first? If you didn't....then....Epic Fail.
