Transfer Scope PCI folder installed from xp to win7 32bit ?

Post by guppy »

Have you ever try to transfer 5.0 or 5.1 "scope PCI" folder from an old winXP (32bit) to a fresh install of win7 32 bit ?
I ask this question because i'd like to upgrade soon to win7 32bit, and I don't know if I must reinstall all the 3rd party devices and patches I have installed until now on XP.
If I must reinstall all that stuff, I prefer to stay with my good old XP :)
Thanks !

sure, you can copy over device folders, preset folders, dsp folders, sys folders, dll folders and script folders, but beware. you don't want to overwrite newer files with older ones.

I can't simply replace the "Scope PCI" folder ?
I'll use the same 5.0 version of Scope.

you can, but everything may or may not work correctly.

you can rerun the installer if it doesn't. probably.
