Hi Lyle,

How you approach this depends on whether or not you can still load Vista on
the system with the faulty power supply. If you can, then you can use the
Easy Transfer tool. If not, then I would see about swapping hard drives
temporarily to access the desired files.

Re: Importing Windows Mail Ver 6.0.6000.16386

Hi Rick,
Thank you so much for getting back to me so quickly - much appreciated. The
power fault in my laptop is linked to the battery so as long as I am plugged
into the mains, as I am now, it works fine. Forgive me but I am a complete
computer novice, where exactly do I find the easy transfer tool and should I
link the two computers or burn the information to a disc (I have CD & DVD)?
Thank you again,
Lyle

Hi,

You can do either (network the machines or transfer to DVD), just type "easy
transfer" into the start/search line to begin.
