Chapter 14: Moving from Your Old Computer

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.

You probably use some programs that did not come
installed on your new computer, such as personal finance
software, graphics programs, or games.
If your new computer comes with a newer version of a
program, it is usually best to use the newer version than
to reinstall the old one.
