Admin will have to weigh in on this one, but I recently had a similar experience. My power supply died, and I had to send by laptop back for warrenty work, and besides fixing the power supply, they did me the favor of reformating my hard drive (which was not having problems

) Fortunately I have my entitre hard drive backed up with Norton Ghost, and I "restored" the hard drive with all the original programs. Unfortunately, none of my MTU programs will open up after the restore. I get a message sayong that the registration number doesn't match my ID. I have been very busy and haven't had time to try and resolve this, and been running my show off a second laptop that I use for a back up. I'm currious to see what reult you have with your old hard drive in a new computer. I suspect your are going to run into problems that admin will have to resolve for you. Let me know how it turns out. Good luck.
