How to copy F@H data from 1 hdd to another

Hi all,


I had a bit of a problem with my harddrive today and it crashed on me. I have rebuilt my system with another harddrive and I am able to see all my data on the old HDD how can I copy my F@H programs and data over?

TIA

Ray

Pretty sure you can just drop the old folder into place on the new HDD, as long as you have the Work folder intact. Everything should pick up where it left off after you start your .exe file.

The EMIII depends on if the pathway to the FAH.exe file is still the same. If everything is still in the same folder structure as before, EMIII will simply find it back. If not, you'll have to configure EMIII again.
