Chapter 8: Moving from Your Old Computer Transferring your e-mail and address book See your old e-mail program's online help for information on exporting and importing e-mail messages and the address book. You can often export all of your old e-mail messages or address book to a recordable drive, then import them from the CD into your new computer's e-mail program. You may also want to consider printing the old information or using your old computer to send the e-mail messages to yourself, then using your new computer to retrieve the e-mail messages. Transferring your Internet shortcuts You can export and import your old Netscape Navigator bookmarks or Microsoft Internet Explorer favorites. For more information, see your Internet browser program's online help. Installing your old printer or scanner Windows may have built-in support for older printers, scanners, or other peripheral devices. This means you do not need any additional software. Newer devices, however, usually require your original software installation CDs. If you have trouble after you install the software for your old devices, you can use System Restore to restore your computer's previous settings. Help and Support For information about restoring your computer's previous settings, click Start, then click Help and Support. Type the keyword System Restore in the Search box , then click the arrow.
