katili has decided My computer has been kind of flaky lately. I've cleaned it up some and it's running better, but at the same time...
I bought a new computer :D

Go for the routine clean wipe, just because it doesn't hurt to do that every now and then to keep the PC happy.

At worst, if it explodes catestrophically, it's summer and you can go outside until you get a new computer.

unless you think you will either find the software again later or fall over less later, might as well get it over with.

Leave it be for now because half my software is missing and I might fall over and die without it.

God, reinstalling Windows is such a pain in the ass.

I have a policy of never making major changes to my systems at times where problems would either cause me to lose important things or suck too much of my time (eg. during term). It sounds like you're at a point like that right now. Definitely budget some time to do the wipe and reinstall as soon as you're out of the woods, though.

Only do a clean wipe if you know you can replace things.

What are you running? Without that information, well, hard to answer. Funny how lots of people here either know or assume that you are running Windows, in which case, I'd say, *switch*!
