It always amazes me how little of their brain some people use. Like the ones trying to hit a fly with a big hammer. All posts should be trying to solve the "problem", not whine about it. Anyway, I didn't see a single post (not saying I read them all) about the beneficial SWAP FILE! All the dumbasses should know the shown in the properties of the swap file (pagefile.sys in WinXP) shows the time the system booted last. If you want, the pagefile creation time is the time you installed WinDoze. If you whine you can't find the swapfile or that it's hidden you're a moron (that's MORON). Oh, and it works for ANY version of WinDoZe (even 3.1 had a swapfile if I remember right). Maybe I'll make a batch file for the n00bz, maybe not. Ask me for it.
