Where can I find my favorite Firefox etc in Windows Vista?

My laptop running completely died without warning (motherboard). I removed the hard drive and was able to read it via a USB box on my new laptop running Windows 8.1, I can't find my Firefox bookmarks.

I read all the posts that seem relevant and I have tried the solutions but none doesn't seem to work. In short:
(a) where on Vista are they stored? the full path would be useful!
(b) should what files I copy across 8.1? What's a file, several or all?
(c) including one or more folders on 8.1 are going to? They replace the existing files?

I have a lot of important bookmarks otherwise I'd start again.

One thing I know now... REGULARLY BACK UP YOUR BOOKMARKS!

Thank you

I have now solved this problem, but the information was not particularly explicit. I have copied the Vista file through to the correct location on W8.1, but had a few error messages (sorry did not had the time to do a note). In the end, I did things work by renaming the W8.1 file by adding "Old" to the front of the name of the folder and rename the folder of Vista (which was something completely different from that of the W8.1 file, but without the 'old' in mind, of course.

There may be ways easier, but after a few weeks, I was just happy to come to the conclusion that I wanted.
