Guys, Unfortunately my system crashed down yesterday night. And i am thinking of re-installings Windows but the problem is, i installed GTA4 in another partition and after i re-install the windows, Will i able to play it from my last saved game?

If no, then please tell me how can i get the saved game from that installation folder. If i get that, then i'll install GTA4 once again and use the saved game to play from where i left....

The savegames are in c:/docs & settings/user/local settings/app data/rockstar games.
After reinstalling windows,when you install gta you'll have to activate it again!

Thanks sekhar,
but the problem is i am unable to boot into the Windows.. I had no option other than re-installing windows. So from what you said, its clear that i cant continue my game as the saved games are in docs & settings folder in C: which i am going to format...

Try Linux live CD to boot.
Copy saved games on flashdrive or CD and then format your PC.
You can also use it to backup your bookmarks etc.

I just repaired the os, wth of my friend. now it boots into windows. i took a backup of save games as a pre-cautionary step

good work
