Computer problems

Do you hate computers? Sometimes I do.. My computer gave me the blue screen of death today and after messing with it forever I found that it has a boot sector virus. What a pain in the neck! Formatting the computer now. I am going to try something different and create two partitions on the hard drive and install windows to the first partition and use the second to store data like pictures and mp3's etc... That way if I ever have to reinstall windows it will not overwrite my saved files. We will see...
