I have successfully installed basic version of DNN without a problem.  My company has a DNN test site that was set up by someone else that I took over for with no knowledge and no documentation.  It is set up as a child portal which makes setting up internal links especially hard.  I want to move it to a production server as the parent and only portal.  I tried to back up the DB and it cause many problems due to being a child portal.  I apparently need to separate the DB of the parent and the child portals (he used the same DB instead of different DBs), I have tried opening it with the SQL Express studio manager and don't see anything about the different portals.  When I moved the backedup DBs to another PC and tried to run the DNN site without seperating I get this error:

Server Error in '/hypercube' Application.

I have to get this site moved and want it to be the parent portal, due to the fact a module we use has issues being used on a child portal.  What do I have to do.  Please be as specific as you can.  I know about the alias however I need a complete move and I would like to make this a clean move (only files needed).
