Hi All,
I've had XP and 7 dual booting since the beta testing stage but I kept my games on XP until the release candidate. I've got my new games going on 7 but my Steam library and lots of other games with important data are still on XP (BF2, CoD4, Fallout 3). I have a few questions about making the migration.
Can I drag my entire Steam folder over to my 7 partition? Would all of my games and data move comfortably with it? Is anything stored outside of the Steam directory that needs to get moved over as well?
Can I similarly drag my other games straight over or should I reinstall them from scratch? I imagine I'll need to track down the individual directories where the save games and configs are stored. Any idea on where stuff like my CoD4 unlocks/kits are?
Any help or tips you can give me on making the full switch over would be greatly appreciated!
