Hey guys, I got that wonderfull screen that says System32 corrupted.

Well I'm going to reinstall, but I havent reinstalled in a year and I have some questions.

1. Do I need to take out my sound card?
2. I need to unplug all of my hard drives except the one im installing on right?

I cant think of anything else, Please let me know I just want to be sure. :):toast:

any tips are appreciated I took screenshots of all the programs I had installed previosly.
are there any ways to save settings that I have now? so it willl be easyer to get my system back up?

Is there a guide to backing up& reinstalling windows? :roll:
