Post From: Transferring IB and SC to a new computer - constant reconnecting

Hello SC staff, Thankyou for looking into my problem. Been running IB and SC for many years without major hassles. Bought a new computer which is working fine (WIN7 64) and trying to set up IB and SC exactly as they were before (old computer was vista 64). IB on new computer appears to be running fine. But then when I load SC everything is fine until I add some old data from the old SC into the new SC, including cbak,cht,stdycollct, and scid files, then IB and SC reject each other and wont stay connected. They then disconnect and reconnect every 3-4 seconds in an endless loop. This doesn't occur if there is no data in the new sc, but as soon as I add my files, even just cht and cbak files, then they wont stay connected.(I use 14 chartbooks) Here is what I think is relevant from the log. Socket closed. No error. \| 2013-05-12 16:20:52 Socket shutdown error. Windows error code 10054: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host. \| 2013-05-12 16:20:52 Connection to the service has been lost or not completed. \| 2013-05-12 16:20:52 Starting TWS auto-login thread. \| 2013-05-12 16:20:52 Disconnected from IB. \| 2013-05-12 16:20:52 Will reconnect to the server in 5 seconds.
