I've bought my son a larger transflash memory card for his mobile but we can't find any way to copy games from his old card to his new one. Anyone know if this is possible, please?

Are you sure the games were saved on to the memory card? I ahve installed games on my phone (smartphone) and they do not install where I expected.
Saying that copying the files over may still not allow you to play the gmes. There are other files that need to be installed in certain places to make the games work.
Anyway the best bet to finding the game files will be to f connect the phone to your pc and browse through all folders on the old memory card. Go everywhere you can they may not be stored where you'd expect them to be.
Try and find folders or files with similar names to the game names. These files/folders should contain all of the data for the games.
If you find any copy the entire folder to the desktop and then on to the new memory card using the same paths as they appeared on the on the card.
not sure if this will help, but do a search on the old sim card for file types '.jar'. I have downloaded a few games and they are in .jar format until I install them. As far as I know the actual games themselves cant be transferred.
The .jar file itself can be sent via bluetooth, infared or copied onto the PC's desktop.
I know there is another type of installation file similar to .jar, I forget the exact name but it is quite similar.
If the old phone has a folder called 'File Manager' search through it, especially if it has a subfolder called 'others'.
Thank you all for your help. Using the software that came with the phone, we can search through the directories on the phone where we can find music and photos but we can't find games anywhere. We can do this for both the in-built phone memory and the inserted Transflash card.
It seems a bit unfair if my son will have to pay again for games that he has recently bought just because he has changed memory cards.
