Moving from the old HD to new issue of computer...

I have a Dimension 8250 with an 80 GB IDE hard drive which contains the OS (XP - Pro SP2) and applications. All data are stored on a separate file server.

Is it possible for me to buy a new machine (490 precision work) and put the old drive in the new machine? I need to upgrade the computer, but want to avoid having to re-install all programs and restore the operating system settings, etc, etc.

Thank you in advance for your help!

  • News Time Capsule, who am I clicking / moving from the old to the new

    I am installing a new time machine.  I can't find anything that clearly explain what exactly I'm clicking and dragging from the old to the new.  It States in the article apple in the Finder to drag the time capsule backup disk image to the new original airport.  I do not see that whatever this is called image backup drive when I'm in the Finder.  I have the following:

    When I double click on data, Finder displays the content on my time machine which are as follows:

  • Transfer of files from the old PC to new PC?

    Hello

    I am trying to transfer my profile of an old HP ProBook s 4430 to a Dell desktop all in one computer

    How can I do this? I'm sick of this slow computer! Help, please.

    Thank you in advance.

    Easy Transfer is correct.

    Easy transfer is a facility built into Windows 7, designed to transfer your data AND settings from the old to new PC.

    You will need an external USB hard drive.  Hook it up and get it recognized by the old system.

    Click on the starting planet

    Simple type in the text box that appears

    Select and click Easy transfer

    From there, it is easy to follow.

    It creates a large file with everything what it.  Works like a charm.  I use it all the time and have for years.  Also works for the passage to a new hard drive.  It will take a while on the OLD computer, but it's walk and come back later thing.  Works much faster on the new.  Helps a lot if you use your USB 3 port and that you have an external hard drive that supports USB3.

  • License of moving from the old computer to new computer

    Hello

    How can I do this? Just uninstall the old and download it again?

    If so, I need to some license information-, I guess. But when I go to my account page and look at my products it is empty. That is my products are not registered. But obviously, I produced (creative cloud, PS) otherwise I would not be able to access the page of accounts in the first place...

    Adobe products must be installed by using installation files - they cannot be moved between machines.  Your license allows installation enabled on both machines so there is no need to do anything on the original, except if you wish to cancel the ability to work with her.

  • Move contents from the old PC to new PC

    Which is simplest and cleanest way to migrate all the content from my old PC (XP) to my new PC with Windows 8.1. Microsoft says it's to make a download available from Laplink (PCMover Express). This downloaded software will do the job if I connect the PC again to my router / FIOS network via an Ethernet cable and make the transfer of PC to PC over the network, or it would be more efficient to use the Laplink USB cable by buying their software?

    It depends on what you mean by "everything."

    In general, it is easy to move data files (e.g. documents, pictures, music, etc.) between machines, and if the machines are all connected to the same network, the copy on the network is the best way to accomplish the move (it is always prudent to copy, check the computer to see if everything is fine, and then delete the old computer instead of moving that automatically deletes the original files).

    Some applications, such as Microsoft Windows Easy Transfer, move the 'parameters' as well as data.  For the most part, this includes things like the customizations of office and similar customizations; It may also include the "Favorites" browser, music playlists and so on.  These 'settings' are really more data files, but they are located in more obscure places and the average user probably don't know the files to move or where they need to go.

    In general, you can not move the programs (applications).  These must be reinstalled (assuming they are compatible with the new version of Windows) using the original installation media (CD, DVD, downloaded the Setup file).  PCMover of Laplink, however, claims to be able to move the programs.  I've never used this product and I saw mixed reviews.  So if you either don't have installation media for your programs or you don't want to go through the resettlement process, read the reviews and decide if you want to take a chance on this program.

    Whether you use the USB owner or your network, apparently PCMover will work with both.  The main difference will be the transfer speed, and this will depend on the type of network you have and the type of USB connection available.  Typical home networks now have a theoretical maximum throughput of 100 Mbps.  USB 2.0 has a theoretical maximum of 480 Mbps.  Gigabit networks are faster and so are USB 3.0 connections (although I think would be that does not support the USB Laplink USB 3.0 cable).  Here's what a 2010 review had to say on this subject:

    With an external hard drive, USB2, we found it took about four hours to travel 30 GB of data, and beyond 100 Mbps Ethernet the same charge took more than a day of solid copy. Your best bet is a Gigabit LAN (if you have one) or the cable USB Laplink, which should in theory work around twice as fast as an external drive.

  • Connection from the old HD to new PC

    My new HP desktop uses the interface SATA series for all readers. I had a good look at the motherboard in the store where I bought it, because I had little RAM added on. My old PC died of old age and won't even POST, but I'm sure that the HD is OK and it contains a lot of files, I want to keep on the new PC. The old HD is parallel PATA. How can I connect it to my new PC to upload my files? I don't want to get into the new PC, since it is under warranty and has these stickers on it, so I figure I need to interface the HD via a USB port. This means, obviously, that I need some sort of converter to convert PATA USB flat ribbon cable and also the HD feed. I guess that these devices exist, but have not found a locally. Suggestions for a good reliable device that can do what I need, preferably a product HP, if it is available? Thanks in advance!

  • reuse the license of Windows XP from the old office to the new office

    We have 4 old desktop computers with windows xp I want to reuse the license of Windows XP from the old office to the new office

    I bought a HP desktop computer and dell preinstalled with Windows XP. The office has not worked for a few years, he has the processor are P4 and slow work.

    I recently bought a desktop computer and wanted to know can I use the same license key to get Windows XP installed on my new desktop computer.

    Note: I have lost my original installation of windows CD but have the office and Windows XP product code is available to me.

    The old HP desktop and dell came with a license with the sticker on the side.

    Any PC which came with a sticker with a key to activate product on it has a license that is related to this PC (and only this PC) for ever. It is not legal to install on a PC using the key videos from another PC.

    If the PC you want to install XP on still has its sticker, then as much as you have a compatible installation XP CD, XP can be re-installed using the key on the sticker.

    Only commercial versions of XP can be moved from one PC to another. With the commercial versions, the activation key came with the media, not on a label stuck on the PC.

  • How to move data from the old hard drive to a new operating system, games, songs, vista etc.

    you want to install more hard drive. How can I move all of the data, os, games, music, etc.

    and have computer always starts.

    Hello

    You cannot move by themselves programs

    you need to reinstall it from the original media

    read this about moving everything, including the operating system

    or save your data and reinstall clean vista

    There are different ways to do

    hard drive manufacturers will normally provide the cloning software to move your operating system installed from the old to the new hard disk

    Search for information on this subject on their Web site

    If you have vista business or ultimate, you can use the builtin vista complete PC Backup to move

    read the information below

    http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial145.html

    or if you have vista home version you'll need 3rd party software

    link below is an example of this:

    http://www.Acronis.com/homecomputing/products/TrueImage/index.html

    also to put your machine how you bought:

    1. that vista is preinstalled, you should have a recovery on your old hard drive partition

    You can recovery disks to reinstall on your new hard drive

    ask the manufacturer of the machine how

    2. contact the computer manufacturer and ask them to send you to vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system back as it was when you bought it

    they do it for a nominal cost of $

    3. or borrow a microsoft dvd vista

    Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer

    they contain all versions of vista

  • Migration from the old to the new storage box

    O/s - AIX
    Present Storage - storage IBM XIV
    New storage - HP EVA 8400

    We intend to migrate from old storage to the new storage box. Here's the oracle servers.
    storage team and AIX o/s teams will migrate data from the old to the new storage box storage box. (step of migration include - backup of volumes of the o/s and even restore in new storage box).

    WHAT SHOULD DO ORACLE DBA, RECOMMEND SO THAT OUR ORACLE DATABASE SHOULD WORK JUST FINE ON THE NEW STORAGE SYSTEM? Please share your entries?

    My hypothesis: The o/s team as AIX will be due work migration preferred to be a s/n, we need not do binary oracle / oracle data files will be the same migrate to new storage box as it is. We being ORACLE DBA should simply ensure that we should have our oracle databases registered with us architecture.

    All Suggestions, questions are welcome, thank you friends.

    Yet once if administrators can make the local hard drive appear identical to the operating system when the contents of the disc is moved to the new storage unit you should not have to do anything. If the local drive cannot make it appear exactly the same that I would probably want to re - install Oracle and patch then just start my database to the newly built House. The note of Oracle on cloning Oracle Home can present a different option.

    It would be nice if this process has been run on a test server before production, because according to your window, you don't want to build a new House of Oracle after the migration to disk. I would like the House to be brought as part of the file movement or I would create before it is tested and ready.
