How to move my server

If you are really this unsure about the steps to make this move I strongly suggest that you hire a computer "professional" to do this work for you.

Do you have a reseller who supports your RMS system? They should be able to do this for you efficiently and reasonably.

And make sure that your new server has enough horsepower. If you have less than 7 RMS stations you can probably use a good XP machine as your server. If your system is larger you should consider a real Windows 2003 or 2008 Server.

I am running a small business with 2 licenses. I don't want to spend any more money on this system at this time. I am assuming that if I can move my server to a different computer, my pos touchscreen will work better. I was hoping that it would be as simple as changing the name of the host computer and when logging on, making sure that it was pointed to that new host. I hoping that someone can give me a step by step account of the best way to do that so I don't make a mistake and somehow mess up the configuration. I just want a back up computer to be the server and host the database. I don't want it to run any of my other rms programs like pos management or admin. Is that possible with out having to purchase another license?
