No need for a re-install, just copy the old Quake III Arena folder to the new machine and put a shortcut to the exe someplace. Put it on a second drive or partition, and you won't have it getting fooked up when you reinstall your OS. I load all my 'portable' apps and games onto D:\ for just this reason. If you need to do a fresh install, load from the CD, then get 1.32 PR, then get pbsetup.exe. (for servers running punkbuster) http://www.evenbalance.com/index.php?page=pbsetup.php If you have to use punkbuster, this will make it a lot less painful to get the latest version. Create an autoexec.exe and put all your favorite settings and binds in it. Some examples here: http://quakefour.net/misc_quakestuff/configs/
