Easiest way to transfer EVERYTHING

I built my jukebox pc with spare pc parts and it seems like I'm about to pay for it. The used hard drive I had laying around is about to die. I can hear it clicking once in awhile and it actually shut off the other day with the computer still running. I purchased a new fast hard drive and I plan on throwing that in the machine. My question is, how the heck do I transfer eJukebox from the old hard drive to the new hard drive. The jukebox machine is on a wireless network and I am able to transfer files between the juke and my main pc. If I transfer c:\program_files\ejukebox to my other computer, install the new hard drive, and then copy it back, will that save all settings such as album covers and such?

Basically you just need to do a full install on the new system drive once then copy ejukebox.ini, ejuke.asn and db.m3u from the old drive to C:\Program Files\eJukebox\ on the new drive. Everything will be exactly the same as long as the file paths to the songs are the same. If the music files are at different locations you will need to rebuild the eJukebox database. Rebuilding automatically restores all data (only for mp3 files) including cover art and pick counts from data stored in the id3 tag.

I went ahead and did the transfer today. Everything seems to be working perfectly and nothing disappeared. The only problem I have is that the program seems to be registered but doesn't say who it is registered to anymore when you first start the program. Should I be concerned?
