okey so ive been cracking my brain on this issue and its really annoying . Basicly i have this program called Mitchell that belongs to my father that he has had for 8 years now . Problem is the labtop he has it on is about to die and i have to now try to perserve it .So when i tried to make a backup of his partition so i can load it on another computer i found that his hard drive has loads of bad sectors making backs vertualy inpossible. well so i manage to get a image and i uploaded onto another computer . The program is on the new computer yet every time i try to load it i get could not retrieve host path. Can someone please help me figure out a way to make this program run. I cant call the manufacter for help because they ask for information that we no longer have since that information was stolen 4 years back which caused my father to close down his shop. Now another thing i understand is supposible all the information i need is on the disk hidden really really good. Reason i say this is because my father clearly remembers when he last had a problem with this program over 8 years ago the stuff to reinstall the program is there but somewhere. i checked the cds all 16 of them for any type of setup or install exe but there arnt . So if there is anyone who knows how to help me with this i would really appreaciate it
