Import recordings/setting/favorites after a format??

I have 2 drives in my machine one for XP and programs and the other for recordings only. I am in need of formatting my C: drive but if I do so and reinstall Sage, will it see my old recordings, or can I import the show information somehow. Also is there any way that I can save all my settings and favorites??

TIA

If you save your wiz.bin, then after you reinstall windows and Sage, then copy the backed-up wiz.bin over the new wiz.bin. If the keep the recording drive with the same drive letter as before, then it should be almost painless. If the recording drive letter changes, then you have to do a couple other things to get the wiz.bin to keep track of the existing recordings.

Other important files are sage.properties and sageclient.properties. Copy them and you can replace the new ones with the backed up versions to pretty much get you back to the old setup.
