Stewart Hobson Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 If you didn't save the original zip files (you should have...), you can go to your account at FSS and download them all over again. No charge. But this time save your scenery on an external HDD. With your new machine you will have to supply your order information again, so save that stuff too. I went through this about two months ago. Trust me--it's 10 times easier if you have saved all that stuff on a HDD. Stew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ridinroun Posted April 4, 2015 Share Posted April 4, 2015 You could pull your HD out of the old PC and use a docking station. They're cheap. The old OS on it won't mess with your new OS. You can transfer your files to the new PC or just .exe from the old HD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ridinroun Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 No. Much of what I own I had before the PC I'm using now and it all installs ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since you will be changing computers, you will have to supply the FSS #, date, and registration key when you reinstall your sceneries onto the new rig.
