    Bit concerned I have now got omega-plus?

    ?? You probably installed it yourself. You need to be careful to make the right choices when installing programs. Free programs often contain bundled Junkware. You often need to de-select the option to install the Junkware.
    Anyway, it's not an problem, as you are formatting and running a clean install.

    Haven't downloaded anything but as you say doesn't matter as doing clean install.

    I've sent you screenshot.

    Installed the 64 bit now, BIOS is at 2.22. Is there anything else you think I should do Nifty?
