Vista - Reuse domain profile user settings in new domain

Reuse domain profile user settings in new domain

I had a domain profile (test.net\myname) that I was using for a while on my
laptop. I have since rebuilt the domain controller (changed from Server 2008
full to a core installation), but the new domain is still called test.net. I
only have the one server so recreated the domain/forest. I also changed the
server name from SRVR01 to CORE01.

Is there any way for me to keep all the old profile settings that I had
(email, desktop, etc.)? I basically want a clone of my old user (same user
name as well) so it's as if I never rebuilt the domain.

Thanks in advance,

My System SpecsSystem Spec
