Yesterday i had to reinstall my windows XP cause of an error.
It was installed at disk "c".
There were now way to back up my database.

On disc "d" is still installed HoldemManager and my database. I just deleted disc "c".

Is there an opportunity to reintegrate the database in windows XP?

Thanks very much in advance.:)

EDIT: I play sng and i didnt have an extra-save for tournament-summeries. I imported them in HM and deleted after. I just want to save that.

Install Holdem Manager, but do not install PostgreSQL with our combo installer. You can copy your old \config folder files to your new installation, if you used custom HUDs, popups, reports, etc. Make sure you double check and correct any/all setings like auto import and archive folders.

- Install this version of PostgreSQL - http://www.holdemmanager.com/downloads/postgresql_8.4.1.1.exe

- using these instructions - FAQ - Hold'em Manager Poker Tracking Software :: Reinstall PostgreSQL Preserving Old Database (http://faq.holdemmanager.com/questions/71/Reinstall+PostgreSQL+Preserving+Old+Database)

- If you have moved/installed your DB to a non-default location, please make sure to change the 'Data Directory' path during the installation.

This will install postgresql to the C drive typically, and your dataabse \data directory to another partition.
