I bought Guild Wars 2 on Saturday, Installed It and have been playing It since, I just recieved a new SSD and a new copy of Windows 7 64bit.
Will I have any account/game issues If I just reinstall the game after installing my SSD and OS?
Cheers.

There is no problem with this. Infact, you can just copy the gw2.dat file from your old hard drive to the SSD without having to redownload the game.

This. I suggest running GW2’s installer (can be downloaded), wait until it gets to the part where it starts downloading the game (it’ll first download the installer, then ask you where to install it to, and then download the game), close it, and then transfer over the dat file (replace or delete the old one).

That way, it’ll create the desktop shortcut (and setup registry settings if there is any it adds).
