Transferring your e-mail and address book
Refer to 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 diskette, then import them
from the diskette into your new computer’s e-mail program. Alternatively, you
may want to consider simply printing the old information or e-mailing it to
yourself.
Transferring your Internet shortcuts
You can export and import your old bookmarks (Netscape Navigator) or
favorites (Microsoft Internet Explorer). For more information, refer to your
Internet browser program’s online help.
Reinstalling your old printer or scanner
Older printers, scanners, or other peripheral devices may
have Windows support integrated (built in), which means
you do not need any additional software. Newer devices,
however, usually require your original software
installation CDs or diskettes.
Reinstalling a USB printer or scanner
USB devices may have special installation instructions. Refer to your USB
device’s installation guide.
