How often do you reinstall windows?

[clocker]

I voted "monthly" but that's just an average really.
I like tweaking software and overclocking...a potentially fatal combination.
Toss in a RAID array and Windows can become pretty um, fragile.

My 64 bit Pro demo is almost expired and I've committed to a real version (meaning I actually purchased the damn thing), which hopefully I'll leave alone for a while.

Usually every 3 months for me, Most times you can only fix so much by cleaning up and then you've no choice but to reinstall

haven't reinstalled my windows in months

Used to be every six months, but I don;t think its gonna be like that this time,
the fraking thing just won't do anything wrong, it's been a long time like this, no single problem at all.

Saying that it has been well over 3 months since i done it this time more like
5 months, but everything still works ok, maybe i just know a bit more now, and know the tips on keeping it running sweet

i started using Linux (Ubuntu) to aviod the windows installations!!! i was reinstalling windows ones in every two months because of the spyware, viruses and other crazy software problems etc.
