i have recently ran into a few problems with my PC. i'v formatted the hard drive around 4 times. i have decided i'm going to ghost my drive, but befor that i wondered about hte possibility of having a CD or DVD that automaticly installed all my favourite aplications at once (or one at a time automaticly). I know nothing about creating such installations... and would love to learn. is it possible? what steps do i need to take?
