Savegames and reinstall : IV

If I am to reinstall Oblivion will I then be able to use my savegames if I install the exact same mods as I've got now?

My list ain't that long

Ok, do I still have to use the trick where I tick one mod at a time, start the game, save and load, and then tick another mod and so on?

If you're using the exact same mods, no more and no less, you should be able to activate all at once and just load your save.

More or less mods... might still work. Try it. Worst case, you have to reload.

And there is nothing else I have to backup than my savegames folder and the other files in the folder in documents/my games, right?

Well, your mods.

But other than that, no. If anything's broken after the re-install, you might also want to delete Oblivion.ini from the My Games folder.
