  What version of PN are you running now and what kind of customization did you do (core files, themes, blocks? ) ?

  You can simply do a diff against the most recent official package (nightly build from NOC) of PNphpBB2. Besides, why don't you simply duplicate your site on a local test server (or a test subdomain on your live server), do a backup and try to
  
  a) upgrade PNphpbBB2 to latest;
  b) upgrade PosTnuke to latest.
  
  If it works, go for it on the live site. If it does not, post your errors here.

  can you explain the process for doing a diff between my current install and the files from the NOC?

  On a Linux/Unix system this is trivial:
  
  

  Code

  diff -r DIR1 DIR2 > RESULT

  
  
  Where RESULT is created as a simple text file. Details and options for optional methods and output style can be found at the manual page for diff.
  
  For Windows based system someone else might be able to help you - I do not use Windows on desktops or servers.

  Don't be ashamed... There is nothing wrong with windows... Macs are the real evil... I perfer windows as a desktop platform. I force my kids to use both *nix and win at home, and school lets the macs control them.. :P
  
  For diffs, in windows, Winmerge is pretty easy.
  
  I feel ya, though. A long time ago, I used a smartor album hack for pnphpbb2 now I have this legacy hack photo album for pnphpbb2, that I do not want to bother moving out, but one day I will have to bite the bullet and do it.
