WoW’s Been Uninstalled

by Garwulf on February 17, 2010 · 5 comments

…and now I’m reinstalling it.

World of Warcraft install

Did I freak you out there for a second? :twisted:

Due to some performance issues, spotty lockups and crashes, I decided to trash my WoW folder and start anew. I’ve had to restore the game files 4 times over the past year and a half due to HD failures I’d incurred with my 2008 iMacs. The new machine runs great, but I think something was amiss before and I’m hoping the clean install sorts things out.

Anyway, I couldn’t resist the catchy title…

My next Beast Mastery PvP post is on the way. In fact, I’ll try to wrap it up right now. :) Seems like a proper thing to do while I wait for the game to reinstall.

In first!

Well, I tried to get the BM PvP post finished, but it didn’t happen. It’s 2.6K and growing… may have to split it up as well.

Take your time, Gar. I’ve been slooowly collecting my PVP gear/gems, and I’m eager to hit an Arena or two – but first I want your juicy brain-knowledge. :3

I also collected my very own Nuramoc the other day. I know you’ve been loving on the Core Hound, but I just can’t bring myself to stand next to those weird flaming dog-rhino-potato things. :P

I bet re-installing WoW is taking a while, especially with the latest patches 3.2 and upwards.. Good luck to you :)

Actually it wasn’t bad. Just a shade under 2 hours total via the download and install. When WotLK came out I couldn’t install using the discs, so I had to install by way of the downloader. That took forever. I want to say eleven hours maybe..?

11 hours…ouch is all I can say! Though a fresh clean install of WoW has that magic essence to it, i’m not sure what it is, maybe the clean out of all the addons etc but it feels good!
