Transferring your e-mail and address book
See your old e-mail program’s online help for information on exporting and
importing e-mail messages and the address book. You can often export all of
your old e-mail messages or address book to a recordable drive, then import
them from the CD into your new computer’s e-mail program. You may also
want to consider printing the old information or using your old computer to
send the e-mail messages to yourself, then using your new computer to retrieve
the e-mail messages.
Transferring your Internet shortcuts
You can export and import your old Netscape Navigator bookmarks or Microsoft
Internet Explorer favorites. For more information, see your Internet browser
program’s online help.
Installing your old printer or
scanner
Windows may have built-in support for older printers, scanners, or other
peripheral devices. This means you do not need any additional software. Newer
devices, however, usually require your original software installation CDs.
If you have trouble after you install the software for your old devices, you can
use System Restore to restore your computer’s previous settings.
Installing a USB printer or scanner
USB devices may have special installation instructions. See your USB device’s
installation guide.
