You need to get the software and the data on the other computer.

  1. Exit all Point of Success programs on the original computer
  2. On the original computer, go to Start > My Computer > Local Disk C: > Point of Success. Copy both the Data and System data folders with their contents to removable media like a flash drive.
  3. Copy the Data and System Data folders into the C:\Point of Success folder that you create on the new computer.
  4. Turn off or disconnect the old computer from the network. Only one database server can be used on the network at any one time.
  5. Install Point of Success on the new computer. A database conversion will be done automatically if necessary.

You will need to re-register Point of Success on this new computer because the registration uses a unique computer ID code. If you try to use a registration code from the other computer you may be locked out of Point of Success until it can be registered on the new computer.
