GOW game saves

Hello again to the pc games forum

I was wondering if anyone can help? I have played halfway through gears of war and collected all the cogs etc .

What i need to know is there any way of saving/backing up my saves and current check points as I need to format my computer and install a fresh OS.

Any help would be much appreciated

Re: GOW game saves

C:\Documents and Settings\Your Username\My Documents\My Games\Gears of War for Windows

This is the Game save location for GoW (or should be). Somehow mine is located in the Program Files/game data folder so yours may be also:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Gears of War\WarGame\Checkpoints

If you have your hard drive partitioned, you can easily back up savegame data and then restore it to its respective position. Plus, you can just install the entire game on a different partition then there's no need to reinstall them after (back up the start menu folder also - this you will find at C:\Documents and Settings\Your Username\Start Menu.
