2 questions about reinstalling windows 7
So I have problems with the current 7600 build of windows 7, so i was wondering if I downgrade to build 7127 will some of the programs not work on it, in general what's the difference?
I want to do that, because I have problems with my connection dropping, you can see my thread about it here Network connection dropping while downloading with utorrent? - Windows 7 Forums
so I read that 7127 build seems to not have those problems and I was wondering about giving it a try since I can't fix this problem even though I tried various ways my connection is still dropping.
also, when I usually reinstall windows I choose an option where my old windows folde is renamed to .old and I keep my files, so I was wondering if that installation is even 'clean' so for example if I had my current windows infescted would installing it like this 'clean' my system, or not? I was wondering because it's all in windows' folder anyway and when you install a new OS you have a new clean folder, but I just wanna make sure I'm right.
If not, can anyone please tell me if there's a way to format my disk, but without having to delete the files I have on my computer? I'm asking because theres' no way I could put all my stuff on cd's and then put it back on my comp. It's too much stuff.
And if there is, how do I do it?
