Help !!! Files & Settings Transfer Wizard Crashes during restore: 'ntdll.dll'

[Allan. M.]

I backed up OE Settings (only) with
Files & Settings Transfer Wizard
pre XP_SP2.

I can restore the data to other
Pre XP_SP2 computers,
( so the backup file is OK )
but not to my XP_SP2 ¿¿¿

When I try to restore the data into XP_SP2
'ntdll.dll' crashes every time just before it finishes,
.... then Dr Watson crashes too...

What can I do to get my 700MB of data back?

Regards.

Looks like you need a workaround. I don't know why pre sp2 saves of the FAST
wizard fail.

Restore to a pre sp2 machine, and save the whole file set of *.DBL files for
that identity, copy that folder to the new system, and Import that folder in
OE.
