Transferring Information to a New Computer
You can use your operating system "wizards" to help you transfer files and
other data from one computer to another—for example, from an old
computer to a new computer.
The Microsoft Windows Vista™ operating system provides the Windows Easy
Transfer application to move data from a source computer to a new computer.
You can transfer data, such as:
• E-mail messages
��� Toolbar settings
• User accounts
• Internet bookmarks
You can transfer the data to the new computer over a network or serial
connection, or you can store it on removable media, such as a writable CD,
for transfer to the new computer.
