[pchelpers] Re: tranfer stuff to new computer-how

There is probably a easier way to do it, but here is what I was told to do when 
I got the laptop that has vista on it. I got a cable that said something like 
"easytransfer" and it said on it that it is made for one computer that has 
vista on it. I downloaded the driver from the cd that was with it. I now 
connected the two computers with the cable via USB. It said I can pick which 
files I wanted to transfer, will try it when I get home this afternoon.   
  My son had told me the fastest way is to take the harddrive out of the old 
computer, get a box to use it external, and connect it to the laptop to 
transfer whatever I want. But that sounds too complicated (to me) Does someone 
know if that would have worked better? Or has someone done it with the file 
transfer program in Windows?

  A friend of mine just got a new computer.
I believe it is Vista home.
I think she is using xp now.

Anyway, she wants to know how to transfer games and other files from the 
old pc to the new.

Does someone know of a url with instructions how to do this or have some 
easy instructions I could pass on to her please?

Thank you,

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
