If I have to kill my C:\ partition, I do it that way:

- rollback your SH3 Commander
- put your SH3 folder in "my documents" to a safe place, like partition D:\
- format C:\
- reinstall windows
- if you have SH3 on a partition except C:\ (like me) rename your moded SH3 folder like "C:\Games\SilentHunterIII-moded"
- install SH3 (keep your renamed SH3 folder)
- delete the fresh install of SH3 manually (not with the uninstall function, you need the registry of it)
- rename your modded SH3 folder to the name of the deleted folder in the step before
- delete the new SH3 folder in "my documents"
- copy your old SH3 save folder on that place
- start the game

You now should have your old complete moded Silent Hunter III. I've done it that way several times and it worked fine. Maybe you need to reinstall your SH3 Commander and your Sh3gen, if you use them.
