Trying to transfer files, documents and pictures from my old computer Windows XP to my new computer also windows XP, I have purchased through DELL Belking Easy Transfer cable for Windows 7. Can I use the transfer cable to transfer from an W.Xp to another W.XP? I have downloaded the CD on bothh computers, but they both identifyu as the Old Computer. Can you help me with this?
Re: Trying to transfer files, documents and pictures...
Dear Friend I will rather suggest you for the LAN instead of data transfer cable. By using LAN you can share Data, Documents, pictures, printers, faxes,
and storage devices at High Speed. Gagan

From the windows 7 computer, Start, Accessories,System Tools, Windows Easy Transfer. Follow the onscreen instruction. Note both system must be on the same network.
Remove old drive from computer and install in new computer using ide ribbon. It will connect as a secondary unit and you can then using windows explorer transfer any data on old drive to new one.
no you can what you have to use is files and setting transfer wizard in windows xp
you can start the Files and Settings Transfer Wizard by clicking Start on the computer running Windows XP, pointing to All Programs, Accessories, System Tools, and then clickingFiles and Settings TransferWizard. (If both computers are running XP, you can start with either one.) just select "i want create wizard disk in following drive " and select you external disk drive tha will do the trick...
First, when the operating system was installed, the product key was installed.
To activate windows, you click activate and it should not ask for the key.
If it is only asking because to are trying to transfer files, then don't transfer them, copy then to a disk or a memory drive,flash drive and transfer them.
If the pc is activated, --you bought it new, and activated it, just because you are trying to transfer ,it should not ask, something is wrong, maybe the old computer has a hacked version of windows and the new windows will see this.
On the old computer, run Vista's "Files and Settings Transfer Wizard" to write one large file onto the old computer. The "export" file will contain your pictures.
Copy, via the transfer-cable, that one file to the new computer.
Run the "import" function of the Windows 7 Files and Settings Transfer Wizard to read the copied file.
With pc turned off plug the USB drive into new PC and boot it up. Now on new pc it should auto detect and install the USB drive. Now goto Computer and you will see your USB drive there. Open that up now its as easy as copying anything you like and pasting to whever you want to keep it on new pc
go to my computer > click on hardware tab >
click on device manager button > in the is next screen on the bottom should have>>universal serial bus controllers
(write these down just in case it cant find them)
right click on them and uninstall
reboot let windows reinstall them Also told Microsoft hotfix causes this problem try uninstalling the last hotfix If that doesn't fix it trythe USB cable
