There should be no problem with transferring files. However, check if your file folder is too deep. I recommend you put your projects back to the c:\p3win\projects directory.
As for p3e / p3e/c or PE (its all the same), now its called the Primavera Enterprise Project Management module (PE/PM module). You really have to move up to this because:
1. Its much much more powerful.
2. Its easier to use.
3. When MS OS decides not to support 16-bit software, P3 wont run anymore (and youre out of work).
The Primavera PM module can handle risks, thresholds, notebooks, monitor budgets, spread budgets across projects in the enterprise, company resources can be shared across projects. One file for all projects (as against 24 files per P3 project).
The perspective of the PE user is organization-wide while that of the P3 users is only project wide.

The problem remains but thank you all anyway for the help.
Bill - I WAS a registered user but not any longer. The company Im working with transfered to suretrak which is much cheaper. I like P3 better but what can I say?? and dont even think about P3e...
Alex - I tried P3Fix but it didnt work. Maybe Ill try again and see if can get any luck.
Ronald - you are right. Now I understand why primavera license has an expiration date. :( You wanna keep working properly? Pay more and renew your license! btw, does anyone knows about P3e/c? Im wondering how it works comparing with the traditional P3.

Unfortunately, moving P3 to a new computer is an on-going issue. Your new XP operation system has been changed to make it harder for 16-bit software like P3 to work with it. Take a look at past forums for more information on this.

Hi
Have you try to restore the file and use P3FIX or run a batch to regenerate the list of files.
Cheers
Alex
