I am looking for some instruction for cloning the OS and game files from the SSD, or...purchasing SSDs and mobos used in Alien since Heighway is no more and no longer offers support. What is the best resource?

Quoted from libtech:

Recived my parts, installed the new pc, new xeno, ect. My Alien works 100% now - new code has some great improvements! Looking forward to exporing the game more, and actually being able to have my xeno eat the ball lol!
Still need a few things for my full throttle, but that was more a mis-comunication at least I feel now they are looking after game issues and they will get it working.

I am trying to find a model number for main PC and SSD, I want to keep some spares on hand...I live in Florida, and we get storms.

Quoted from Lamprey:

If you have the newer PC then this is a replacement:

Additionally, you want to upgrade it to 8GB ram (DDR3) and a 32GB msata drive.
If you haven't seen it, there is the PC I listed above as well as other parts listed in this thread:
