I transferred Microsoft Excel97 from WindowsME Sony Laptop to a new Gateway
Dual Core Centrino along with my personal files with a SanDisk Cruzer Micro
usb flash drive (Memory Stick). I got it in Best Buy for $35.00 and it worked
great.

I used the Belkin Easy Transfer Cable and the transfer was done quickly and
without any problem. The only issue I have is that I had to create another
user on my new computer and all the data was transferred there. Now I have
to find out how to transfer from the new user to my administrator user. I
don't want more than one user profile on my computer. Anybody have a
solution to that?

Thanks

Hi,

In an upgrade, yes. I suspect that is not what you did though. What version
of Vista did you upgrade to? From XP Pro, it would have had to been Business
or Ultimate, other versions would have created a clean install and programs
would not have been migrated.
