Backup Folder???


Lord Zog

Recommended Posts

With Windows XP SP3 around the weekend.. (Supposed to be Tuesday or so), do I just backup my "C:\Program Files\GameEx" folder to keep my settings after install or another folder? Can I just backup my "C:\Program Files\GameEx\Data\" folder?? I am doing a complete format and reinstall as with all SP's, we get Kernel updates not avail from patches, which means, possible speed increases.. :) lol..

Lemme know as I am backing up everything important from my boot drive and will be formatting as soon as XP SP3 is released and integreated into my XP cd for a new install. It's due anyways... Haven't formatted since XP SP2. :) Thanks!

Hi, this should be covered in the FAQ, but yes entire folder, then install latest version over the top.

I wanted to throw in I just updated to VISTA SP1 and everything is fine.

:)

Yup.. Works fine on my XPS m1730 with Vista Home Premium and SP1.. But, my main emu machine is XP as a few emu's don't play nice with Vista quite yet.. :( That and I find XP is a tad quicker than Vista and with SP3,, they say its even faster than XP with SP2. :) lol.. If I don't see a big improvement tho, I will be using Vista on my emu machine as soon as those broken emus (2 of them) are updated. :P

I figured it was just a matter of copying the complete folder, but wanted to make sure.. Thanks fer the info. :)
