Got a question...how can I copy the registry from one hard drive and install it on another so I can just copy all my programs/files onto the new hard drive?
And, where the heck is it? in System32? I am installing a 60 gig hard drive on the laptop replacing a winnie 20 gig one. |

Never mind, System 32 is Windows.
You will have to load your software all over again. I hope you have a CD burner on your laptop otherwise you will need to take it to someone. Burn all your data (MyDocs, Outlook) whatever you want to save minus the actuall software. Burn to disc, install the new hard drive, install Windows from your restore CD, install software, insert backup disc and put everything back. If you cannot afford to lose your data then I would leave it to a local teenage professional LOL LukeD |
