I hope someone will be able to help me. A few months after I first got VF, my computer went on the blink. After many months (too long a story to go into now!), I got it back, and needless to say, all my Families (3) were dead. Started 3 new Families, and now the computer is acting up again - sounds like something it can't recover from.
I really don't want to have to start my Families over again - have got them in 11th, 10th and 8th generations now. My question is this: is there a simple way to tranfer the game with all data intact to a new computer? A way that is not too expensive? I'm talking really cheap here - can't afford more games if I have to pay too much else on top of another computer. I need to be able to transfer VV2 as well, just one village. I don't dare even start other villages or try VV4 & 5 in case the computer dies abruptly.
Also, I'm thinking a laptop next time. I just do e-mails, a bit of surfing, and casual type games like LDW or Luxor. Anybody got any recommendations? I'd like something that works fairly quickly, even on dial-up, and that can easily handle 2-5 programs being open at once, such as VF, one VV, PT, while going through my e-mail and playing poker. You could say I'm a multi-tasker to the max! Or you could say easily bored, and attention deficit, those work too! Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
