Hey guys i was thinking about reformatting my drive {eilsoe 🙂 }

Anyways im not sure if i can because i have a TON of all these files i would like to keep. :td: i got like tons of .fla’s .swf’s .doc’s .txt’s and all that. I got some games on my computer i would like to keep: cstrike, diablo, nox etc. but i dont know how to make it NOT delete these files unless i reinstall them… Well see the problem is for cstrike i CANT reinstall it because i lost the cd key on the case :crying:

Anyways some help or tips?
