Why doesn't he just get his machine how he likes it and take an image of it then when ever he meddles and feels the need to reformat it he can just revert to the image he's taken complete with drivers,software and data.

Deleted data is never really totaly deleted It is marked by windows as 'usable drive space' and gets overwritten by new data. (which is still recoverable)Formatting does not get rid of all the data on the disk doing this weekly your drive may start to become slower unless you use a program such as blancco which overwirtes everything with 0's
and it removes all data from the drive.
