Hi everyone,

I got a viurs that caused me to have to re-install Windows XP Home edition
Rather than replace and overwrite all my old files I installed a second copy
of XP
Is theer any way that I can recover my documents, settings and programs over
to the new vrsion, as the old one will not load up for me
Thanks,
Paul
 
Hi Paul,

Sure, just open Windows Explorer and drag and drop them to where you want
them.
