Hi
I agree with all upthreads mentioning that the amount of information you (Murali) deliver is much too little to help. Nevertheless my thoughts.
- NTLDR Missing is obviously a Windows problem and I don't think that it has to do with PostgreSQL. You may find better help on a Windows forum or mailing list.
- If you have produced a SQL file dumping your whole clusterv (pg_dumpall), then you should only need to reinstall PostgreSQL and run the file as a script (from command line or psql). There is no upload of sql file, unless I don't understand what you mean.
Bye
Charles

OK we're gonna need to keep this on the list, as other folks may be a much better choice to help you than me (I'm not a Windows guy.)
OK so we need more info to help. I don't know how to fix the NTLDR problem, etc, because it's windows. However, the folks who might be able to help need more info.
Specifically, what are you doing to try and load the .sql extension?
Are you using a second machine for this?
Have you made a backup of the files in d:\Program Files\Postgresql and put it in a safe place? It's important to NOT mess around with the only copy in case things go wrong with it.
What exactly HAVE you done to try and move the PostgreSQL directory elsewhere? What EXACT errors are you seeing.
The more information you provide the more we can help. Right now you're asking for help, but you're not helping yourself, because you're not showing us what's going wrong. More details gets you more answers.

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.
