installing on an USB based System disconnect the USB lead.

2. Using Windows Explorer, locate the four databases,


MedLocalConfig.mdb,
MedLocalPatients.mdb,
MedLocalResults.mdb and
MedLocalLog.mdb in the path C:\Emg\Databases
Place copies of these four databases in another location on the hard drive, or on an external
storage media.
(if upgrading from Synergy version 12 or to replace the databases after the upgrade is
installed, the path will be C:\Synergy\Databases)

disk storage space permits or preferably use external storage media if available.
Using Windows Explorer, locate the three Patient data folders,

Place copies of these three folders in another location on the hard drive, or external media
similar to step 2 above.
