HAS anyone ever done this ?
do they save all your stuff for you or do you have to do that yourself ?
was your experience good or bad ??
I'm VERY protective of all my files and depending on everyones replies - I just may do it myself but man - it's SO much work - so I'm wondering if it's better to take it to the professionals - I want it to run like it's brand new
Thank you !!! |
V, Since you save so much stuff that might be what is doing the freezing. I would suggest before you do anything at all to buy an external hard drive. They have some fairly inexpensive ones. Then move all your files and goodies over and then do the reformat. You can also run ad-aware to remove all the cookies and fishing software. That stuff really really gets in there and messes up your computer.
Good luck.
