Yeah, i was taken by complete surprise, when my PC initially booted up with my old OS and proceeded to install drivers. Did a semi-clean install, keeping files and some other stuff.

Yep, gonna do the same.
Make a backup of my collected email addresses, my bookmarks and save games and just format C, install new. I know from experience that most games run instantly or just need a verification of the files. Only all my tools need a re-install but that's done in like 90 minutes...

Not much effort involved nowadays.
When west germany annexed east germany, nobody moved a finger too.
