System / Equipment Refresh

For simple systems/ setups, some may find the following ‘completist’ procedure most useful for refreshing their systems. Stark beginners may, however, wish to steer clear. Those with more complicated systems may wish to steer clear, or carefully modify approach. Simple as it may appear to some, it needs to be followed in strict order/sequence. Setting a System Restore point is advisable oh, come on, you can turn Sys Restore back on for this, at least for a week or two!) I particularly like it, as a system refresher. This is because I like to keep my setup on all the time although I don’t recommend abusing one’s monitor this way – powering the monitor off before going to bed, or when away for a time, is the best advice there.
