Moving a SetiQueue

[Coolkid]

I need to reinstall my pc running 2000 Pro that hosts my Setiqueue, how would i go about backing up all my settings & queued WU'S and restoring them once i have formatted reinstalled 2000?

Thanks

Stop Setiqueue
Copy the SetiQueue folder onto a CD
On new PC/install of Windows, copy back from CD to hard drive
Right click on the SetiQueue folder, go to Properties and remove the "Read Only" attribute, apply to all files and subfolders
Go to Start -> Run, and type "C:\Setiqueue\setiqueue.exe -i" to install it as a service, so you don't have to start it manually or be logged on for it to work

Garry,

Will just adding "-i" to a run line install anything as a service?

Could one just:

Go to Start -> Run, and type "C:\Seti@Home\setidriver.exe -i"

and SetiDriver will be installed as a service, so you don't have to start it manually or be logged on for it to work?

Smokeball NO, sadly it wont, but Setiqueue supports the -i and the -u for install and uninstall.

Coolkid, remember to set SetiQueue service to automatic in Services or it wont start even if installed as a service..
