I have to reinstall WIN7, but do I just re-download it or what? What about my online key?

So should I just save MXS and my personal folder to like a USB or something, and then once I have reinstalled, paste it back in?

Don't lose your key. If you can't access your original email address I won't be able to send it to you.

If you need a new installer link send me a private message or email.

Okay I'll just write my key down, then once I have everything all squared away with the reinstall, I'll PM you for a new installer and put my key back in...

I guess I'll save all the stuff in my personal folder too before I reinstall, then just paste everything back in there.....

Ugh this is going to suck...

Wait will that work? Just copying my stuff out of my personal folder, and then putting it in the new personal folder?

Last question, so, could I just put the MXS program folder in my backup D drive, then just put it back in my programs list and it work fine and I would be able to go online?

You could do that and then run the 1.4 update to restore the shortcuts and file associations.
