i have yet to find a good way to do this. usually i just back up what i can remember, then pretty much back up EVERYTHING (all files) to a 2nd hard drive, reformat main one, then slowly import everything i forgot to back up

Reformat? I don't. I use drives until they show signs of imminent failure, Ghost them over to a replacement, and destroy them. This windows install is creeping up on 3 years old.
