  just deltree c:\windows
    you'll most likely have to re-install some software on top of itself so
windows can find it again, but if all you delete is windows, you keep all
your other stuff.  just lose whats on your desktop and your internet stuff.

Dave,
I don't know if you know of this but I found it on one of the Abit ng's and
I thought it might be of help to some people experiencing trouble with DX
8.0 -- 8.0a. I tried it and it worked for me... what follows is the original
post from the abit mainboard ng pasted here for clarity as I would probably
foul up trying to explain it in my own words...

===================================================
...Microsoft left debug mode on in 8 and 8a for Direct sound. That is eating
up
cpu cycles from hell having that on, not to mention software/hardware
conflicts that can create. Well I hope this helps some people. This will
cure many ailments.
Extract to Windows/System then go to Control Panel click on the Dx applet go
to the Direct sound tab and slide the debug slider all the way to the left
<<<<< to disable debug mode. It will work w/ 8.1 but I believe debug is off
w/ that version. Microsoft remembered to check.

A V3 PCI. But I did upgrade the vid card (from S3 Daytona + 2xV2 SLI) along
with the MB last time.
