    Make sure you check the option to backup the table structure.

    Go to your phpmyadmin, export all database tables(from your previous host).Then import it here at x10 via phpmyadmin.
    If you still have problems please don't hesitate to ask.

    Have you taken a look at this:
    http://docs.simplemachines.org/index...20&topic=491.0
    It looks like you don't even have to use phpMyAdmin to export your database.
    Then go into phpMyAdmin at your site hosted at x10Hosting, select the database and click Query.
    Paste what you got from exporting it from SMF.
    This might also help:

    How are you exporting, and make sure in phpmyadmin that you haveselected to recreate the tables.
    What you could try as well is manually recreate the table through phpmyadmin and try importing again, it should complain about it not being there at least
