A clean re-install of XP is the most likely to have no problems, but it's

Understood. My biggest concern is actually all the application
installations. They take me close to a day to install and setup once I
have the OS installed.

Will the "repair" wipe out the installed applications?


No, thats the beauty of a repair installation, all apps are exactly like
before, you just have to rerun the windows update crap again.
