Uplay

I've just done an OS reinstall which was on my ssd.

Steam & uplay are on my D drive. Steams up and running and uplay updated itself when I tried to start farcry3 through steam.

The game I want to try and get going is driver San Fran. Its in "my games" but with the option to download but it just SATs failed when I select it.

Its obviously on my D drive but it won't do anything. Anyway of sorting it? I've got about half way through the game so don't want to lose my progress.

All the binaries and related files to the OS would have been wiped when you did the fresh install, steam normally works better as it just redownloads the files it needs but Origin and uPlay don't as far as I know.

Best bet would be a fresh install of uPlay.

Check this before reinstall, assuming your My Documents was backed up:

Windows 7 it should be in Users/<your username>/My Documents/Ubisoft/Driver San Francisco/<Uplay username>/savegames

Should be able to back up the saves I think?

Yes I saved documents. So your saying reinstall uplay, download driver San fran again and copy/paste the save games?

You might want to have a bit of a google beforehand to check it's as simple as that, but tentatively yes, I think that might work. I don't have the game in question to check I'm afraid.
