I recently suffered the same fate. I contacted the APH office direct and they were able to help me track down my old serial number. Have such details as when it was purchased and how purchased whether by credit card or other means. If you could also remember your user name that would also be a big help.

At least when you get mt started again you can use that back up media to transfer your stuff to the new drive. I'm interested to learn the answer to your question myself. Good luck for sure.
