I have ROF on my pc but now have a new pc and will not use the older one anymore and want to install on new pc. Do I just download the free version?

When possible just copy it over to the new pc.
If not possible just download latest ROF version. You have all planes, campaigns etc bound to your account, so no loss except gamesettings.

You can move it all over across your network if you have it set up that way, or you can put it on a thumb drive (or similar) and move it over that way as well.

The only thing you have to MAKE SURE of, is that the new machine has all the third-party stuff on it too!

.NET stuff
MS C++ stuff
DirectX 9 stuff

Download the free version and then transfer your skins folder by hand (mine is about 40gigs) that way you get a fresh install and dont need to download the huge skin packs again.

The demo IS the full game. You just need to input your login info when you launch it....

Oh yea... back up your views and your configuration files as well.
