Just wondering if anyone knows of a way to take all the files from
windows.old to the vista, I tried to cut and paste, but in the process a lot
of my files wouldn't work as they previously did, I would just reinstall
everything but that would take a day, and I don't want to take the time.
Hook it up.

Peace
 
Probably should have run Windows Easy Transfer before you made you move.
Sorry, I don't know of anything after the fact.

You can just move any *data* files over to where ever you wish...
as far as your applications...they *must* be reinstalled
 
Applications must be installed in the operating system you wish you use
those applications in. There is no application mover that I have ever tried
that is worth to powder to blow them to hell.
