How are you trying to transfer it over?

The easiest ways are probably to zip up the league folder and email yourself the file. Or you could upload it to a website and download the file on the new machine.

Another popular means to do this is by burning the league to a CD and copying it onto the new machine. However there is a drawback to do this. When you do this it changes all the files to be "Read Only". This will cause the game to crash when trying to write to the datafiles. In order to use it you will have to change all of your league files permissions so that they are NOT "Read Only."

Hope this helps.
