hi, for some reasions i have to format my Hdd and reinstall everything. thats ok with me, except that i have been playing fallout 3 and have been saving under my live account. i copied the fallout files to a portable hdd and i am going to just copy and paste them back once i get windows installed again. i am kinda worried that the saves wont transfer with the game files. this is the first game ive been playing under the games for windows so i dont know what will happen. im hoping just to sign back into live and have them there, but i dont know if that will happen. if anyone knows how it is saved please post. thank you

Check your documents folder for the "My Games" folder and look and see if the saves are in there. I havent bought into the hype that is Fallout 3 so I am unsure of where it would save. But its new enough that it "should" use that folder.
