What files to copy after system re-build?

[MDPhillips]

My motherboard died last Friday - don't ask, it was my own fault - so over the weekend I rebuilt my system. Without blowing the budget, I've made some significant gains in system specs (see below if interested) so I'm anxious to see the effect on Civ 4.

I put in a new primary drive and kept the old Drive C to restore needed files from. After I reinstall Civ 4 and apply the patch, what files should I copy from the old drive so that I don't lose anything worth keeping - i.e. Hall of Fame listing, game preferences, and anything else you would think significant?

I haven't modded or tweaked anything - just a basic install - so I'm just looking for the file names/directories to copy from the old drive to the new one.

Thanks!

Old System -> New System
ASUS A7V -> Gigabyte K8 Triton motherboard
. . . I wanted to be able to keep my IDE drives and nVidia FX5500 AGP card
Athlon 1GHz -> Athlon 64 3200+ processor
896MB PC133 -> 1GB PC3200 Dual Channel DDR RAM
new WD Caviar 320GB SATA drive (Best Buy had on sale for $120!)

I believe that either of these procedures would work.

Perhaps search the old trees for files that had changed the day of your last victory. I did and found a profile *.pfl file in the \docs&settings\.... tree, some log files in my \programs tree, and the *ini, savegames, and some other logs in the \My Documents tree.
Assuming your new install has the same drive letters as the old, they may copy over fine.
