Computer Question

awall5 · 04-24-2007, 10:28 PM

I know just enough about computers to get myself in trouble.

Here is my question. I have played 6.5 for awhile now and am considering moving up to 2007, based on all the positive reviews. I am going to be purchasing a new computer later this summer. Do I need to wait and download it to my new computer or is there a way to transfer it from my old computer to my new one when I get it.

Forgive my lack of computer knowlege!!!

Thank you.

You would have to reinstall it on your new machine. Just dont forget to unlicense it from your old machine if you are not going to be playing on that one at all (control panel\elicense - right click on license and unlicense)

You can just copy over your league folder though and everything will be ok, but you will have to reinstall the game and patches (for correct windows registry entries and stuff like that)

Dont forget, you will need your order id to reinstall on the new machine.

It's like saying when you try to extrapolate the end of the universe, you say, if the universe is indeed infinite, then how - what does that mean? How far is all the way, and then if it stops, what's stopping it, and what's behind what's stopping it? So, what's the end, you know, is my question to you.
