Mediawiki from Backups...

Hi. Well, I no longer need help with the UNIX side of
backups and such.

I have just recently converted everything over to Windows
Vista. Things are
going good so far, but I can't get MediaWiki 1.8.1 to even
consider reading
the old database. This is the same database that 1.7
wouldn't read either
from the backup. Am I reinserting the database to the system
wrong or
something?

MySQL, Windows Vista RC1, MediaWiki 1.8.1 and Apache
WebServer.

That's entirely possible, but to get any help on it you'd
have to 
describe at least:

1) The type of backup you have

2) Your exact method of reinserting it

3) The exact error messages
