There is an option to retain your home partition but in your case I would 
recommend you do a complete reinstall so that it wipes any incorrect 
settings. (This assume that your customisations can be redone easily.)

Do not touch hdb1 (your fat32 partition)

I think from memory you should have / on hdb2
swap on hdb3 and /home on hdb4

Let me know if you need help
