i experience frequent crashes when trying to load random things. I have not been able to figure out any kind of pattern to the crashes. It typically just happens randomly but seems to happen most often when pulling up webpages or whatever.

but anyway. My question is if completely wiping my hard drive and starting over will fix this problem.

I used to download alot of emulators and emulated games so i wouldnt be surprised if some bad stuff snuck in and are causing the crashes.
