Transferring Files From Computer To Computer - HP Mv2120 - Media Vault Network Drive User Manual

Transferring Files from Computer to Computer

Your HP Media Vault can help you simplify transferring files and settings from
an old computer to a new computer.
Using a feature found in the Windows XP operating system called the Files
and Settings Transfer Wizard, you can transfer files, folders, and
settings for Internet Explorer and Outlook Express in addition to desktop and
display settings, dial-up connections, and other types of settings to a file on
your server. On the new computer, you access this file stored on your server
and transfer the settings and files to your new computer. The Windows
Files and Settings Transfer Wizard must be available on the Windows
operating system on both your old and new computers.
