Why on earth did you re-format your hd? There's such a thing as using a disk utility to optimize the hd at least once a week! Heck, windows even has an optimizer utility! When an hd is allowed to become severely fragmented, it comes to a screeching halt and the only option is naturally to reformat because the File Allocation Table is screwed. Learn about your machine instead of just turning it on and off!

I don't want to appear nasty, just making sure you're clear on what goes on INSIDE the pc case. A neighbor used to re-format every single time any little thing went wrong. He eventually got tired of doing that and started buying new hard drives because he figured THAT was easier and less time consuming than re-formatting. But you know, everything still had to be RE-INSTALLED!!!
