lol! of course... yah i did a lot of times and u can do it too if u are the one who managed to do ur previous server. think back attaching ur database, about making a backup task? read stickies it's there and when u learned it, i'm sure u can do the restore task. before u reformat ur pc do not forget to save a copy of of the Data and Backup folder in your partition drive or in a USB coz ur going to use them attaching or restoring back to ur sql for it is the accounts/database of ur players in ur previous server.
