I am getting a new computer, can you tell me how to move my FastEMC files from one computer to another using my floppy disk drive?

First your will need to install FastEMC on to your new computer. Once FastEMC is installed, do not configure anything as you will be copying your data from the old PC.
Now go to your old computer, you will need a handful of diskettes depending on how large your database is. Get to the C:\> Prompt of your old computer and type the following command:
Note: If FastEMC is not installed in c:\win_ansi\ then replace it with the correct folder where FastEMC is installed (check your icon path if you are not sure).
pkzip A:fast.zip c:\win_ansi\md*.* -rP&

Have a blank disk in your A: drive and the system will prompt you when to insert the next disk. This may take 6-10 disks depending on the amount of claims you have stored in FastEMC.

Now copy onto a separate disk the following file from your C drive:
c:\win_ansi\md\fp\pkunzip.exe

When completed, take these disks to your new computer. To restore the zipped disks, get to the C:\ prompt. Insert the disk that has the extra file and type the following command:
copy a:*.*

Once it has copied the file over, then remove the diskette and insert the first disk of fast.zip. Type the following command:
pkunzip A:fast.zip -d

Follow the on screen prompts to finish restoring the FastEMC program on your new computer. Contact FastEMC if you have any questions.
