• Can I use easy transfer of the hard disk Vista for 64-bit Windows 7 computer?

  My computer laptop 32 bit vista is dead, but the hard drive is intact.  I can access it using a disk blacx disk drive hard usb.  All files seem to be good.  I gave the disc all permissions for changes, etc., so that it is not just to read only.  He sees my new laptop running windows 7 64 bit.  I found files in the record Office of the old drive so that part works.

  I tried to use easy transfer in windows 7.  Installed on the old disk of vista.  But I can't launch the vista easy transfer since this computer is dead.

  Is there a way I can transfer my emails, photos, documents and the itune files?

  Thank you.

  You can use Knoppixhttp://www.knopper.net/knoppix/index-en.html with a good ISO as Copier: http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm as well as a blank CD (made on a different computer).  This should give you sufficient access to the Vista system 'dead' (if you can not get in any other way) backup/transfer your important data (like everything else you mentioned) to the one you use (an external hard drive, flash player,...). You will not be able to save your settings or your programs because they require the enforcement system to use easy transfer and regular functions copy and paste will do the trick. If Knoppix doesn't work, try slaving the hard drive to another computer, and then after the data you want to save it.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

  XP - XP Easy Transfer

  What I can or I do not use Easy Transfer XP to Vista (or XP to Windows 7?) to transfer files, settings, etc. from a XP Pro (SP3) to another XP Pro PC, or what I need to use the files & Settings Transfer Wizard?  I can't find a definitive answer of 100% with it in correspondence of forum.  What if I transfer via an external hard drive or a shared network folder?

  [I guess there is no XP easy transfer dedicated to XP tool]

• Can I use Easy Transfer to transfer my files and settinigs if my old Win 7 PC has a broken video card?

  The video in my old Win 7 machine is broken.  I am particularly interested in the transfer of all of the settings on my new computer Win 8.  The old machine has an external hard drive for backup purposes, but I do not know if this includes the parameters or a few files.

  Can I use easy transfer to access the internal hard drive, even if this computer has no video?  If there is no way to do it, my external backup disk has the parameters that I'm looking for and is accessible with Easy Transfer?  Other options?

  You must be able to see and access Windows Easy Transfer of two computers - they must be running and able to interact with. He has no way to initiate a transfer to a computer that has access to a second computer, without checking on the second computer you establish a transfer.  No work around, no other way to do it.  None. Your backup drives or external work not either except maybe to find a few files that can be moved.

• Can I transfer files and settings using easy transfer to a PC with an XP 32 bit system to a PC with 64-bit of Windows 8. I need to load software on the XP PC?

  I'm helping a friend transfer files from laptop running Windows XP 32 bit on a desktop running Windows 8 64-bit PC.  I want to be sure easy transfer will work.

  The use of a USB stick to transfer files works if you have only a few gigabytes of Documents, pictures, music and videos. Assuming that the old computer supports usb 2.0 (if it is longer than 5 years, she probably only support usb 1.0) over a network connection 100 Mbps local, there is no contest, the connection to the local network is much faster. Unless you really know what you're doing isn't the best advice. Do you know how to transfer your settings to internet explore (i.e. Favorites), passwords, certificates, outlook, etc. etc. ? The best solution is to use the windows easy transfer program, it's free! Download you the old machine (XP or Vista), race a category 5 (lan cable) cable to one of the unused router ports (Verizon, Comcast, Linksys, etc.). Turn on the old and the new. In the old computer, open the transfer program that you downloaded for free from Microsoft or the internet;  If the new computer is w7 and w8, the transfer is already installed; Open easy transfer in both computers, and then follow the prompts.  Start with your old computer, follow the instructions, it is not any easier than this. It gives you the choice of what you want to transfer and which solves a lot of problems. It is so easy to use that it is almost ridiculous. A word of warning does that move from a 32-bit to a 64-bit program, it works!

• Using Easy Transfer of Win 7 PC to another Win 7 PC with 1 single monitor

  II want to transfer files and settings on a PC running Windows 7 SP1 to another PC running the same operating system. I have only 1 monitor. How to make the transfer with 1 single monitor?  If I can do it with 1 monitor PC must be connected to the monitor? Or what I have to go back between the 2 PC's? Thank you. (Stupid question, I guess, but I need some advice).

  Hi Harry,.

  Yes, you can use a system image to transfer the data.

  However, Windows Easy Transfer is a software assistant to transfer files and settings from one computer running Windows to another. You can transfer data from one user or multiple user accounts profile. Easy transfer Windows application will help you choose what to move to your new computer, you can set the transfer method to use and then performs the transfer. Once the transfer is done, Windows easy transfer reports displays what was transferred and provides a list of programs that you can install on your new computer, as well as links to other programs you can download.

  With Windows Easy Transfer, files and settings can be transferred using a network, a flashdrive USB (UFD), or the easy transfer cable. However, you cannot use a regular universal serial (USB) bus cable to transfer files and settings using Windows Easy Transfer. You can buy a cable to transfer files on the Web, the manufacturer of your computer, or at an electronics store.
  noteNote
  You can't use Windows Easy Transfer to move program files. Windows Easy Transfer can move only data and program settings. You must then install your software on the new computer.

  Windows Easy Transfer, also, does not transfer any system files such as fonts and drivers. To do this, you must install custom and updated fonts to update drivers in Windows 7.

  Use the Microsoft Windows User State Migration Tool (USMT) 4.0 to automate migration during large deployments of the Windows 7 operating system. For more information about the USMT, see the User State Migration Tool 4.0 (usmt.chm) Help documentation installed with the Windows AIK, or see this Microsoft Web site.
