Where is this database? I want to move the library over to another machine
which indexes the same music so I can keep my ratings and such.

It's under your user account directory, which is often

C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Settings\Application
Data\Microsoft\Media Player\CurrentDatabase_360.wmdb

On WMP10 I think it might be named CurrentDatabase_59R.wmdb



HTH
