    Well, I'm constantly overclocking components, fucking around with my hardware, installing a whole shitload of stuff, etc etc.

    .. but I use software that allows me to instantly restore my HDD to a past point, so meh.

    I'm always reformatting my HDD, but I haven't killed anything yet. (Although I suspect my Q6600 is sick of the abuse. ^_^ )

    Although I don't do as much maintanance as i could, I do keep it clean, and functioning etc. I also use a windows emulater if I'm unsure about software, keeps it clean.

    The only part of my computers that ever break are the hard drives....Sometimes I turn my PC on in the morning and I get a nice ERROR LOADING OS message. This happens every couple of years or so. I have a feeling it might be because I defragment my hard drives every other day.
