quick tech question*read*
 

ya, i know this is the wrong section...but whatever. i just ordered a new pc and i wanna know what i need to buy to transfer files from my old computer to my new one. i know this can be done, but i dont know what does it....links to products that can do what i am looking for, will be greatlly apreciated...along with any other help.

just take your old harddrive, set it to slave on the jumpers and put it in your new computer.

firewire cable?

Your hood is over your eyes.

tell me more about this "fire wire"

Are you simply trying to transfer data, or applications?

If it is only data, then yeah, install your HD as slave in your new machine. There should be a little diagram to show you how to set the jumpers on the drive.

^^

if its just files, burn them onto a cd or drop them onto a memory stick of some sort and put them on your new pc. you have to reinstall new software. using firewire or a USB cable would require you to set up a network between your two pcs. i dont know how to do that at this moment, consult your nearest google.

yeah, with me, I had over 30 gigs of music. I had a desktop and tried to transfer it to my new laptop. I had to get a firewire cable to do it. It was alot easier than actually burning a bunch of DVD-R's and stuff.

Just dump the old data. It's cheating on you anyway... oOo:

hows your cousin?
