I just download the latest wallet from the announcement page and the most current version of the old-style wallet (non-masternode) is v0.9.4.6-unk-beta

- download the latest wallet from the announcement page download section or this link to download it directly http://darkcoin.io/downloads/darkcoin-qt.exe

- backup the wallet.dat using the guide - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=621424.msg6885340#msg6885340

- Start the wallet, check it matches version v0.9.4.6-unk-beta and let it sync

but how do I transfer my DRK coins over to that wallet?
The wallet.dat file from your original wallet that you backed up is what contains your coins. If you are just moving the coins to different local computer, just follow the steps I posted earlier:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=621424.msg6885741#msg6885741

will that work if I transfer on same computer? from old wallet to new?

and you said I should wait until its synched before transfering coins but its not syching.. 1 drk coin to anyone that step by step me in PM

The wallet won't sync until you upgrade to the latest client.

You don't need to transfer the coins if you are just upgrading the wallet on the same computer. Replace the old darkcoin-qt.exe with the new one and start the wallet, that's all you need to do beside backing up the wallet.dat in case of the unlikely event something goes wrong.
