you re-installed version 7? Orion might be looking for an old poller-

Stop the SolarWindsservices and go to C:\Program Files\Solarwinds Orion Network PerformanceMonitor\Advanced Features\Monitor Polling Engines. Go to Servers > PollerLoad Balancing.  When the next screen comes up, click on the first node, holddown the Shift key and click on the last node.  Then go to Polling Engines >Move Selected Pollers to and choose the new server. When prompted to remove theold server from the database say yes. Then restart all the SolarWinds services and open Orion. you might also try a restore using the SQL mgr.
