I was looking through the forums last summer and I found a link to an article (possiblly by EVE-UNI) on how to set up an overview. I had a pretty good system at the time but figured if I ever had to do a reinstall I might use some of thier tips.

Well I had my annual Windows Crash, with a little help from the power company (Some power spikes) and Viola I am doing the reinstall thing. Sad Unfortunately the link I saved in my browser is gone with the rest of the data on the old drive.

So the question is does anyone know what I am talking about?
And more importantly do they have the link?

I am still reloading MS service packs and Updates, so while I wait I figured i would pick the forums brains.

Have you looked into buying a UPS (Uninteruptable Power Supply)?

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

Also try Google chrome as a browser. You can synch all of your bookmarks and plugins with your google account so that the second you login to a new comp (or a reintstalled one) with Chrome all of your bookmarks will carry over.

It even works between devices too. You can have it installed on your iPod or phone and be able to share bookmarks and currently open tabs between the comp and handheld.

Thanks those are some really great links, looking forward to the color coding as well as implimenting some of the reduced chatter overview settings. I have been doing this 'on the fly' for far to long.
