Moving Windows Media Player Library Database

Question

I recently bought a new computer with Windows XP, and I'm trying to move my entire Windows Media Player library database from my old computer (Windows 2000) to my new computer (Windows XP). Now, I've moved all the songs to the new computer, but obviously if I add them to my media library, it will say that all the play counts are zero (0) and the date added was today. But I want to retain all my little tidbits of data from my Windows 2000 computer, which has all my playcounts and date added, etc. I know that Windows Media Player keeps these tidbits of information in a file called 'CurrentDatabase__' or something like that, but when I try to copy that from the Win2K to XP computer, it doesnt retain any of that information that I want. Can anyone help me, if this is possible? Thanks very much.

You would be better asking this on the Windows XP software section, probably the most applicable section for your question.

I can't answer your question, but googling for 'moving WMP library from one PC to another' brought up quite a few hits.
