Hi Fred,
All of your previous set-up will be stored in the .xml file (named as the profile you are using .xml) and located in you Mach3 folder. Copy this file, save it somewhere safe (memory stick is good), then use it to over - right the new .xml file after the re-install. It is also wise to keep a copy of your license file and screen set, just in case everything gets deleted.
