Users\[user]\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\
Save that folder to a zip or other location and you should be right...
I'm not sure if you'd also need to save the folder under program files, I think thats just the base platform. perhaps to play it safe, back that up to a seperate zip and only restore it if it's necessary.

Press Windows-R and in the Run dialog type:
"%appdata%"
(including the quotes) and click OK and this will open an Explorer window. In this window you'll see a folder called XBMC. This contains all your config files, add-ons, etc. Just copy this somewhere, and after you reinstall copy it back.
