Moving Seti to new os install

[kamper]

Hi all,
I'm sure this has been answered before but I can't find it...

I'm putting in a new hard drive tonight, new windows install, the whole bit. So I need to move seti over. Can I just copy the whole installation folder, work units and all? If not, how else can I save the work units, short of changing my cache size to 0 and crunching all I have saved?

Thanks,
kamper

ps. the new drive is a new raptor. How many more wu/day do you think I will get?

Are you running the command line or gui?

umm, I'm running exactly what is described in Smoke's setup description. I guess that's the command line with SetiDriver running on top of it? I don't have the fancy graphs and such that people talk about.

You can just copy the entire SETI folder and subfolders over and start crunching.

Don't forget to create a new shortcut for the startup folder.

Step 12: Create a shortcut to the SetiDriver.exe file. Change the shortcut's properties to "Run Minimized". Place this shortcut in the StartUp folder of your Start menu.
