Does "reinstall" require reinstall of all application software
If I do a "reinstall" of Vista OS, will I then need to reinstall all the applications, programs and games on my system? Thanks. -- mikiehahn

Hi mikehahn, It depends on what kind of reinstall you are planning, if you can do this http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/88...all-vista.html then you should need to reinstall all your programs and settings. If you are planning on this http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/11...ion-vista.html then you will need to. You can make it easier by transferring your data, program setup files, exported mail client and browser details onto a separtate partition. Then format and install Vista onto the partition it was originally on. Then reinstall/import from that new partition. http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/95...partition.html Or you could use the Widows Easy Transfer program - tell it you are on your Old Computer, and transfer your files and settings to an external media. After reinstalling, tell it you are on your new computer and transfer in from the external media.

Thanks. -- mikiehahn Hi Yes, unfortunately, unless you have made a disk image backup. But to start from scratch, that is, reformat your hard drive and reinstall Vista, then yes, you will have to reinstall all your third party applications, programs and games.
