i have collected my files with FAST fro my old computer to the new one using
a blank CD but I Had these Message:
"Your migration store was created with a previous version of Files and
Setting Transfer Wizard. Please collect your settings using the current
version of the Files and Settings Transfer Wizard. It is available on the
Windows XP CD under Perform Additional Taskes. You can also create a wizard
disk by running the wizard on your Windows XP computer."

It is best to use a CD version of FAST every time - that way you know you
are using the same version to export/import. It is also best practice not
to erase the original until you are sure the copy is good. =)

You may be able to use your old Windows XP CD from your previous machine to
import the files. Insert your old Windows XP CD, let it auto-run (or open
it to run it) and choose Other Tools and the Files and Settings Transfer
Wizard.

You may be able to uninstall a certain patch on your new computer (through
Add/Remove Programs control panel) and use FAST again:
