Just a question reguarding reformatting my C drive but games are on D
I'm planning to reinstall my W7, and i have most of my games on my D: drive which is NOT my boot drive.
- Would it be possible to reinstall my Windows which in the C: drive and not corrupt my game files? Would i be able to just create the shortcuts to the game.exe from the D: drive? Or will i have to reinstall my games again? The only game i have installed on my C: drive just Battlefield 3 and that wouldnt be a problem for me, but the rest of my games have more importance than that. And i have a lot of games.
- Would it be possible (if a few of my games have game files in my User folder [ in appdata etc]) to just copy my User folder and overwrite the freshly installed one?
List of games i have installed on my D: drive:
-DCS:A10-C
-Lockon: Flaming Cliffs 2
-ArmAII and OA, with mods installed
-BF2 with mods installed
-Heroes of Newearth
-Warcraft 2
-Mass Effect 3
-Skyrim
-NFS:TR
-Dragon Age 2
-Minecraft
-Tribes Ascend
The only game i have installed on the C: drive is BF3, but it's fine if it gets wiped since it's synced online anyway.
So the major question, which is more general than the previous 2, is: using either of the methods in both questions, will i be able to play my games without any problems like corrupted files or missing files?
