I've currently got an XP laptop running MC12. I use MC12 only for audio. All the music files are on an external hard drive, mostly in FLAC. The "library" is where ever the "default" location is (I assume it's on the laptop's C drive.)
I'd like to accomplish the following:
Transition from my old XP laptop to a newly purchased Vista laptop, retaining all my song ratings, cover art, etc.
"Move" approximately 60% of the music that's currently on the external hard drive to the hard drive on the new Vista laptop. I can't move 100% over because the laptop only has 320gb and I've got 600gb of music. (Doing this lets me get rid of a USB cable and the external drive for the vast majority of my listening.) Ideally I'd be able to simple plug in the external drive at any later date and have the "complete extended music selection" available, just as if it were all stored on a single drive.
Can you point me to instructions on how to accomplish this?
Thanks.
