What is the best way to backup all the drivers needed on a system prior to a clean install?

You don't back them up, just reinstalled them from the original discs after reloading your operating system.

I'm going to have to go to the manufactorers web site as when I bought my Vaio I didnt recieve a disk... This has happend to several of my friends... I was thinking there was a way to back-up already installed drivers for all hardware... I guess not... Thanks Guys.

Brand new vaio. The thing is they give you the ability to make your own nine cdr recovery disc. which I did. Its alright because after you make it you can reclaim 5 gigs of hdd space. I wish they just would have sent me a darn disc with the laptop instead of having me make my own...
