[QUOTE="Miffle, post: 429608, member: 28840"] 12 seconds is insane - I haven't had a single problem with spyware or/and viruses for many, many years.. Its all about keeping safe. You wouldn't leave your car door unlocked because it is a statment of all you hard work and savings; its also how you conduct your business. Its a sad thing when anything is left to die, if that were happening to me and I didn't have anything important on the hardrive, i'd replace the drive then look for hardware faults. If nothing is found I would then start a fresh. For me there always needs to be a backup system - you never know if you'll need it for 1 hour or 1 month! This is my backup system, away from my main build whichh is having some generic hardware faults. It is from about 2004 and with an AMD 2200+ AthlonXP and 512RAM and runs fine despite a few years ago having some PSU and heat issues. On the otherhand, I understand if you just want to move on - if its more of a tool to you and you hadn't anything important on there you may feel its time for something brand new. [/QUOTE]
