Suffice to say that I've had to format 4 times in the past 5 days.
I'll post reasons why when I've calmed down a bit.

Well I'm using 98. Try to get to me to convert AT YOUR PERIL!
Anyway. The first one was because of a virus. One of those that hijacks your browser and turns your home page into a kid porn site every time. AVG couldn't shift it, so I had to format.
The second and third times were caused by, when going through the usual process of installing drivers, a non-existent network adapter being found by windows, which caused the net to stop working altogether. Since I couldn't get rid of this thing, I had to format. It happened twice because I didn't know exactly which driver install was causing it. Turned out to be the digicam.
The fourth time was my own doing. I installed the camera again in order to get to the bottom of this phantom network card, and try and fix the problem.
I couldn't.
