Try to reinstall SQL to the old folder.
If it recognizes the old installation, you should be able to connect to your old database.

If that fails--> copy your SQL/data folder to the new partition (x:/Program Files/PostgreSQL/8.x/DATA--> install the SAME SQL version as your old installation (8.3 or 8.4)

If that fails, just create a NEW database and manually reimport all your original handhistories.

You find your old hands in the archive folder (default c:\hmarchive). Copy this folder to your new computer and import the hands via import file or import from folder.
