What should I do to transfer XP from hard drive from one computer to another? ___

The original computer hard drive that I bought XP Pro to install on is dead. I'll add a new motherboard, hard drives, and memory and then reinstall XP. How to convince windows that I removed XP from my old system so that I can activate it on the new drive?

You don't need to. Just turn it on normally. If it has been long
rather, activation on the internet will work. Worst case, if
activation of the Internet failure, you will be asked to activate the voice
call. Just follow the instructions; It will be quick and easy.

  • Transfer programs and files from one computer to another

    My old computer is an HP ME edition. I transferred programs and files to a HP with Vista Home Premium. Will the old programs and files, my computer run more slowly, and can I remove the old ME programs and files without interfearing with Vista OS?  Thank you

    First of all, you can not transfer programs from one computer to another - well, you can try, but it almost certainly won't work because the programs must be installled to make sure that ALL the files and registry entries are added correctly and created.  Delete, nothing like you have transferred because it will be of no use and just take place.

    As far that range from data, you can transfer data and should not affect the performance of your system (unless you have a LOT of files - and I mean a LOT).  Move them to the appropriate folders in your user profile to make them easier to find (and backup).

    Certainly, you can delete the old program files and data that you have transferred without causing any problem for Vista.  Just be careful that you ONLY delete these files and do not delete Vista files accidentally while you do.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • How many times can I transfer my license from one computer to another?

    How many times can I transfer my license from one computer to another?

    If it is a retail license, you can transfer as many times as you want as long as it is removed from the previous computer, on which it was installed.

    If it is preinstalled on your computer, it is related to the first computer on which it is installed.

    The OEM of Windows 7 versions are identical to the versions commercial full license with the following exception:

    -OEM versions don't offer any free direct support from Microsoft technical support Microsoft

    -OEM Licenses are tied to the computer first you install and activate it on

    -OEM versions allow all hardware upgrades except for an upgrade to a different model motherboard

    -OEM versions does not move directly from an older Windows operating system

  • transfer of all, except the os from one computer to another

    want to transfer everything except the os from one computer to another

    Marce,

    I would like to get an external hard drive - the best of Seagate and Western Digital for about $100. I have a 320 GB Seagate and it's much more that I need. Can I save more than one computer at a time. It's basically a huge flash drive, and you can buy them both at the Wal-Mart or Target or Office Max, Office Depot, etc...

    This option is also better in the long run too - for data transfer in addition to save your documents in one place safe.

    If you feel this isn't for you, then you can move gradually using a flash drive (available at Wal-Mart, Target,...) or burn your data on CD and move it over that way.

    I hope this helps.

  • What is the process of moving my Creative Suite from one computer to another?

    What is the process of moving my Creative Suite from one computer to another?  What do I need to uninstall completely from a computer until I can install it on another computer?  I have a real CD not a download.

    Do not attempt to move anything from one machine to the other.  Just use the disk and the serial number, you will need to install on the new machine.  You are allowed to have two facilities enabled, so you can keep the original as a backup, if you prefer.  If not, the minimum you need to do is to disable the original in order to free activation for another use (open the program and choose Help-> Deactivate)
