Hello Steve

can you check the media path in the wp-config file
I am not sure but it might be one of the reason

Also I advise you to take the backup of the database before doing any tricks ;)

You need to change the path. Use Search and replace plugin to replace the paths inside the posts.

Ah. Sorry. Misread. Did you use the import attachments command at the new blog? It automatically grabs all the images and associates them.
