| Answer:
You cannot simply copy a system from one computer to
another or restore the backup copy to a different
computer for this reason:
Windows requires software that is part of the loan
system but is not included in the loan system directory.
This software is installed in the Windows System folder
the loan servicing system installation program at the time of the
original installation.
It cannot be copied to another
machine because Windows maintains a database of program
information called the Windows Registry. This database
is updated by the loan system installation program at
the time of the original installation.
The only way to properly install the LoanMaster loan system is
with the original LoanMaster Lite system setup program.
System Transfer Procedure for LoanMaster Lite
1)
If you are not familiar with the Windows Explorer
or the My Computer dialog, find someone who is. You
cant do this without it.
2)
Download and install the complete new system from the
web site. This action will install the Windows software,
update the Windows Registry, and place Icons on the
Start Menu.
3)
Copy your old system, the entire directory and all
its subdirectories, to your new computer at the same
location as the new system was installed. This will
completely overwrite the new system you just installed.
You will receive multiple messages about overwriting the
existing files. Click on "Yes to All" to avoid this
message.
If you like, it is OK, but not necessary
to delete the new system you installed before copying
the old one.
At this point the old system should be working with
your old data.
To verify this, start the system from the Start menu and
check your data.
