tips. Because most installation software is periodically updated, you should
also check the manufacturer's Web site for driver updates.

Reinstalling your old programs

Spend some time going through your old computer's
menus, making note of any programs you want to install on your new
computer. Locate your original program installation CDs and installation
guides. Your original CDs and guides should contain any serial numbers or
product ID keys that may be required for program installation and
registration. Remember to check the manufacturer's Web site for important
program updates.
