Main HD crash, DB already on 2nd drive, recovery?

[Mullin]

My main HD died the other day, taking PostgreSQL with it, however the multiple databases are located on another drive.

I'm sure I've seen a post here ages ago (possibly from _dave_) explaining how to recover the dbs. I can find the posts explaining how to create a DB on another drive, which is what I used in the first place, but cannot for the life of me find one pertaining to making an existing DB work on a new install of PostgreSQL.

I'm pretty sure I know all the details (db name, password, host name etc), help would be greatly appreciated.

Other possibly relevant details:

Vista
UAC is already disabled
Comfortable using command prompt with sufficient direction :)
I have two DBs on the secondary drive in the same location (eg. d:\PT3db) just installed using a different TABLESPACE name with the same LOCATION (not sure if this was wise, obv not an expert)

Cheers,

I'm not sure of the exact procedure, so rather than trying a half-assed explanation, I'll get someone to take a look at this thread for you.

Thanks WR,

Any idea on an ETA? Not trying to push, just that my game relies heavily on stats and I'm not confident playing without them.

I play for a living so I'm asking more out of necessity than impatience.

Thanks again, and please don't read this as a complaint ;)

Sorry, I posted a message for someone to look at it, they must have been busy - I'll send another message and try to make sure you get a response later today (most of the support guys are in the US, so it won't be for a while yet).

No problems, thanks for keeping me up to date.
