I am trying to migrate from old computer with XP to new computer with Vista.
I copied Easy Transfer software to old computer two ways, and neither run far
enough to open a dialog. I see three likely processes running, but no
applcation. I have XP Pro SP2, so it should run, but does not. Stuck. Any
suggestions?
 
Hello Jeff,

What build of Vista are you using, and how are you trying to launch Easy
Transfer?
 
Tom,

I tried the CD version of Easy transfer on another XP computer and it starts
up just fine there, so I suspect something is meesed up on my laptop. But
what?

Hello Jeff,

At this point I have gotten it to work on several test systems, but I don't
know what could be causing it to not work on one machine and not the other.
 
Start XP, insert the Vista dvd and when the splash screen shows up on the XP
desktop use the link there to start WET.
