I copied my BF3 game folder to a networked harddrive, Reformatted.. installed origin, Started BF3 Download, Close origin, Copy folder back and overright everything. Worked perfectly fine.

Please let us know if this worked for you as well mal? I am going to have to format my pc soon too, hopefully, when ever I receive my new mobo/cpu. And I do not as well want to have to redownload every single friggin update. Windows itself will take for ever.
