I would think you could use the files and settings transfer wizard.
 
save all the files 2 c.d.
y are u formatin?, if just for the hell of it make a "ghost" of ur harddrive
 
I suggest getting a program that will create a 'drive image'. The program will store EVERYTHING on your harddrive, into one file. Then all you have to do is rerun that file, and you have all your settings back. It's kinda like an ISO.
A good program that does that is Drive Image :)
 
Drive Image creates an exact copy of what he's got now (an "image"). So if he's in a postion where he needs to reformat now, then he'll have exactly the same problem if he restores an image.

If you are going to reformat and reinstall, then you are going to start with a brand new registsry. So yes, of course you'll have to recreate all your tweaks.

Please tell me you are smarter than this. If he is formatting because he is having problems then a ghost image does him no good. If he loads that ghost image then he has the same problems as he would before the format.
 
i personally never make a ghost, but every 1 else seems' 2 use it so i only offer advice based on what i have seen + heard...

legal note:rolleyes:

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
