New computer coming, how to transfer PCDMIS to new one?

We have a PC management program at work and its time for a new tower. Before it gets here I want to have all my ducks in a row. My question is, is there a checklist that walks us through this process? I have 2012 MR1.

  • I needed to move our online seat to our offline seat while a failing hard drive was replaced.
    Both PC's running Win7 x64 & PcDmis 2014.1 SP2. We have a FDC controller.

    1) backup online registry settings using Settings Editor
    2) note the online PC hardware settings for the type of communication used with the controller (for us it was a network card), note adapter IP address, etc.
    3) copy all unique probe files, report templates, etc.
    4) duplicate adapter settings on new PC
    5) load PcDmis on new PC
    6) copy registry settings to new PC using Settings Editor
    7) copy unique user files to new PC

    Going from memory but I think that's all there was to it.
