So Frustrated

[skydancer]

Hi,
New to the forum.
I set up my new dell xps, with XP. I purchased a software program to
transfer all the data on my old pc to my new pc. As you know I had to
create the same profile (same name) on my new one thatI had on my old
one so it could recognize each other. I had already set up a new user
profile for myself - so now I have one user profile with all my old
data, settings, docs etc on one account - and my new stuff under
another profile - I only want 1. How can I merge these to accounts
with the settings docs etc in tact.

I'm at my wits end
Thanks for any help
Eileen

Use the built in Files and Settings Transfer Wizard. This will mean doing
the transfer again.
