Thank you. That's what I thought.

| | 4. If you are keeping the old computer, you mean sharing a printer.

| | you must run Network Setup Wizard on your old computer to share a

| | | Hi guys
| | |
| | | I am moving from an older laptop running XP Home to a new one
| | | also running XP Home. I know I have to re-install al my programs
| | | and have largely already done that. However, is there a way to
| | | transfer:
| | | 1. Outlook Express and IE6 settings and data?
| | | 2. IE6 remembered passwords?
| | | 3. My Network settings (both wireless and cable)?
| | | 4. Installed Printers?
| | |
| | | Thanks.
