Mark, you can do that on Windows as well. The only (!) thing you have to do
is to backup your log_ds.ax file which you will find in Windows\System.
After a fresh OS install, just copy your Logic folder (from whatever backup
media you may use), put log_ds.ax into the appropriate directory and
reregister it (just drag it onto regsvr32.exe). Even without that Logic will
start fine, it just won't recognize DX plugins. Ah well, you may want to
backup your Logic preferences as well (from C:\Windows).
I did it that way numerous times.
I do have my original CDs though - even if I don't exactly know where they
are right now...

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
