iTunes Music Library on external harddrive - no access

I have ALL my music on an external harddrive. After re-installation of Windows and iTunes on my computer dure to some function errors, iTunes doesn't recognise my music: I changed the root in "preferences" to the music folder on the harddrive - but iTunes would not upload the music and I cannot find ANY command where to do so ... WHO CAN HELP? I am desperate ...

What did you copy to the external drive?

If you have an iTunes directory on the external drive, try the following:

Hold down the shift key and start iTunes, keep holding down the shift key, you should be promted to choose a library. Navigate to the iTunes directory on the external drive and choose iTunes Library.itl.

Without knowing exactly what you copied I can't tell if this will work, but it is worth trying.
