Hi, do you have a backup of your old system or can you mount the old HDD in the new computer?

Did you copy your Emby folder at %appdata%\Emby-Server (ie C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Emby-Server)

If so, it would be similar to the steps described in this thread: Migrating Emby to new Windows Build - General/Windows - Emby Community. Basically just copy that folder in it's entirety to the new computer and then double-click the executable to start up the server. When you copy it to the new computer, don't put it in the user directory though and don't install Emby.
