I want to upgrade from XP to Windows 7 and I want to delete the whole partition with my actually windows to can install windows 7 there, if I change the OS my world of warcraft will still work? or I need to install it on windows 7?

So my WoW folder is in partition D and I will only delete the partition C, the WoW folder will be untouch, but I know that some games usually don't work if they aren't "Installed", I will need to download and install the game again for windows 7?

Sorry for bad English.

Q u o t e:
Will I need to download and install the game again for windows 7?
As everyone else mentioned, Allexarn, you will not need to reinstall the game.

If your D:\ partition is untouched, you may simply start the game using Launcher.exe found in your main WoW folder.

Additionally, once windows 7 is installed, make sure you take the time to update all your system system drivers. = )
