This is one reason I love Windows 98 SE. I keep a full backup image and can completely reload the entire system in about 6 minutes flat. XP is huge and such a pain in the rump! I never clean anything off my 98 machine. If it has any problems what so ever I just reload the whole thing.

I image XP as well but for some reason it takes forever to restore and sometimes the images decide not to work. I've never had that problem with 98.
 
I nLite my XP SP2 installation (Remove drivers / apps / whatever I don't need + unattended installation) and use that at my reinstall disk if I ever need it. Takes about 15mins to do full reinstall. :lol:
