hello everyone
i apologize for being so quick on asking for help, before i double
checked my paths and local settings  - which i thought i did but....
i have just realized that i had the old computer's name SSAVIC in the
database_name path - and that was the only reason this was not
working! thanks for help, this is (self)resolved
