Check list of items to back up before deleting windows or formatting your hard drive

Sometimes the only way of getting your computer to run as smoothly as it used to is to format the hard drive.  When you do so, it is important to back up all of the data that you use:

Documents
Downloads
Music
Pictures
Videos
Bookmarks (Favorites in Internet Explorer)

Anything else?

Also, if you use proprietary, licensed software such as Microsoft Office, you'll have to have your activation code ready when you re-install it.
