I need to reformat my drive. Can I just go into some folder and save all of my drivers? Otherwise I have to look them all up on the internet again which takes forever.

If you make a list of your drivers via device manager (print them out), reinstall XP and then see which ones you don't have, it shouldn't take that long to find them. No i dont think you can save them, but i could be wrong.

But its alright. With info you win in the end. The first time i set up this computer.... oh 4 hours or so. (with programs) the second time... about 2-3. it makes a difference when you dont have to hunt for the dang things.

I would suggest to save all of your .exe for your drivers and important programs from here on. They do come in handy, i have a 1 gig file of them :).
