OK let's see what we can do to help you. What OS are you running? How
idd you move the database directory to the new machine? What errors
are you getting when you to start the db? What errors are you getting
when trying to restore from your old .sql backup? What version of
pgsql are you running?

Just kinda imagine one of us is looking over your shoulder and tell us
everything. Details that may seem small and unimportant can be very
important in helping to troubleshoot this kind of thing.
