Your XP install fits on an 8G usb stik ? ?
Of course it would. A fresh XP install only takes 4-5 GBs.

I reformat when things get jacked up enough from the viruses (viri?) that are constantly going around... But there's some real good anti-virus programs out there now. I'm hoping reformatting my laptop will get it performing at 100% again. I was running it with outdated anti-virus protection and it's to the point now where it doesn't boot up right, and I haven't been able to run it from the battery in a long while, not because the battery is bad, but because of not having proper virus protection. Not sure if reformatting will fix it, I haven't used it in months. Now that I've a disc to reformat it with I shall do so! Then I'll have to come back here and change my poll answer! I'm not even sure when the last time I reformatted my desktop computer. I'm not sure if I ever have this one! 8)

 :(  I didn't vote because I didn't understand the question.  If you mean a total reformat that wipes the hard drive clean, never.  If you mean a disk clean up, ummm... I think I did that about a month ago.

Reformat: meaning completely erasing your OS and hard drive and reinstalling a OS.
