Nobeltec Transfer

[Greg Schoenberg]

I have an older version of Nobeltec....6.5 I believe. Trouble is, I have no backup disks. I'm replacing my Thinkpad with a speedier one and want to transfer Nobeltec and charts to the new one. Can this be done without the disks? If not, would someone consider lending or selling me their disks. Of course, I'll pay S&H.

TIA

You might want to run this by Nobeltec but it really sounds like what you are asking is illegal.

I'm not sure you're going to be able to do it even with pirated discs.

I bought one of the first versions of Nobletec in 1997 and had subsequently upgraded several times.

I seem to think that at some point, however, the ugrade or transfer to another laptop was not possible by using the original floppy disks. I had to buy the Visual Navigation Suite disk.

The original chart discs were fine.

Does anyone remember when laptops had such little memory that you had to keep the chart disc actively running in order to display the charts?

Maybe I misunderstood your request. If you're asking to use someone else's CD-ROM for Visual Navigation Suite, yes, it's illegal.

You might use a program like MoveMe, http://www.spearit.com/about_MoveMe.html . You can download it for free and it will tell you what it can transfer before you buy it. My sister used it to move all of the programs and data from her old computer to her new Windows XP computer. Everything worked, including Microsoft Office.
