Moving from your old computer
Transferring files and settings with Windows Easy Transfer
You can move your files, folders, software settings, and user account settings (such as display,
Internet, and e-mail settings) from your old computer to your new one using Windows Easy
Transfer, providing your old computer uses Windows XP or Windows Vista.
While using Windows Easy Transfer, you will not be able to run other tasks on the computers.
To move files and settings from your old computer:
1
If you want to transfer program settings to your new notebook, install those programs
on the new notebook before running Windows Easy Transfer. Windows Easy Transfer copies
only the software’s settings, not the software itself, to the new notebook.
2
Click (Start), All Programs, Accessories, System Tools, then click Windows Easy
Transfer. The Windows Easy Transfer dialog box opens.

Your notebook must be on during scheduled tasks. If your notebook is
