As long as you use the same CD Key/Steam account that you use now, re-installing Windows will have no effect on your character so there is no need to worry.

No problem man, hope the re-installation runs smoothly!

reinstalled a-ok, but almost lost my profile!

Luckly I had backed up My Documents folder which is where your profile is stored. There's 2 folders in there called 'Arma 2' & 'ArmA 2 Other Profiles'

Replaced those and my profile was back up

Thought I'd let you/anyone else know :)
