Reimaging is where it's at. I do it about every month or so for optimal performance against the dreaded "windows rot".

thats where you install a fresh version of the same OS over the previous one, right? i need an XP professional disc to do that with...

It's basically just reformatting, reinstalling windows, and getting everything JUST the way you like it, then using a program to save an "image" of the hard drive. Then when things get messed up after a month or so you just reimage, restoring it back to how it was when you saved it. Then you just do some windows updates and shit that may have changed on your machine since you saved the image.

Dosent that reinstall yer docs folder tho?

It does by default.. but I personally don't save anything in my mydocs folder. What you can do though... is partition your machine into a C and a D drive, then move your my docs folder over to the D drive. Then when you reimage your C drive your my docs will stay put.
