Install versus reinstall - lose everything?
Last week, my PC suffered a corrupted driver, lost LAN connectivity, blah, blah, blah. The result was a total boat anchor of a PC (at least as far as getting on the Internet is concerned). I have a new copy of W7 on the way. My intention is to reload the OS, so that the PC performs well again, while retaining the software that's currently on it. Is that doable, or do I have to unload it all to external disks first? BTW, I think WS2_32.DLL took a hike. It's there, but I can't use Malwarebytes on it, without Internet connectivity.
