Okay, we had a thread a while ago about what order things get installed when doing a fresh install of your OS.

This one is about WHAT APPS DO YOU PUT ON with a new OS?

To consider myself "up an running," these are the basics:

+AVG Free antivirus
+A-Squared antiTrojan
+CoreTemp
+CPU-Z
+ClockGen
+Everest Home
+F@H
+Opera browser
+Glary Utilities
+Flash player
+JK Defrag
+MemSet
+VLC Media Player
+OCCT
+SuperPi/WPrime
+Daemon tools
+(depending on what rig) Any or several of: FoxOne, AMD Overdrive, or nTune

With those installed and updated, I consider myself "moved in" to a new installation. How 'bout you guys?

Call me weird-o, but here's what I usually do...

- Firefox
- Drivers
- Winamp
- CPUZ
- Everest
- OCCT
- CoreTemp

- MSN Messenger
- AIM
- Skype

*Only when I overclock, or checking the rig
I then browse around and download the needed stuff - Flash, patches, etc. Then I install my softwares/games, and I'm all set.

That's right, no A/V :lol:

If I need a virtual drive manager, I use PowerISO (I need it anyway to install most of my stuff... sooooo :lol:)
