Go into phpMyAdmin, and click on the "SQL" tab, then upload the database dump through there.
After you do that, download repair_settings.php (on the download page under "Tools and Converters"), upload it to your board's directory and run it. Use all the recommended values. This will update all the settings and URLs based on that particular server (so if the paths changed or something else changed after you moved, this will fix it).
