RE: Reinstalling Windows without actually losing installed programs/drivers theory
What you just described is called "restoring a full backup".  Instead of copying files yourself and screwing around with another OS, you could just use backup software designed for this purpose -- ntbackup.exe that comes with XP, Backup Exec, etc.

Anyway, if you are trying to solve an actual problem, it might work better if you can tell us what the problem is...
