Wanted to add that the save files are easy to keep. Find your Medieval II Total War folder, and simply copy the "saves" folder to a safe location. When you are finished with all the reinstalling and patching, copy your saves folder back to the Medieval II Total War folder, and your saves will be back, just like they never left. Note, however, that people have reported some oddities when using old savegames with 1.2. Most notably, you may have all your traits become the wrong thing: it seems they changed the trait file (likely added and/or removed some) which means that traits in save games all get shifted around weirdly. It's recommended to start a new campaign in order to avoid those potential weird things.
