Should I 'Quick Upgrade' or 'New Installation'

[Gordon]

I got XP recently

I have used the quick upgrade successfully - but am
tempted to try the 'New install' option in order to clean
up my computer and make things run smoother

is this advisable?

does the new install option format the computer?
