transferring files from old computer

I printed out the instructions on how to transfer files
from my old computer to the new XP. It says to first go
to the old computer: start, accessories, system tools,
then files and setting transfer wizard, but when I go to
my old 98 computer there isn't a file called Files and
Settings Transfer Wizard there. I only want some of my
files from the old machine, not everything. I don't have
a cable, nor understand what to do if I did. Can anyone
help?

Also, I don't know what it means when it asks if I want
files only, settings only, of both. I want to be able to
use the files; do I need the settings?

Thanks for any help.
 
Most programs need entries in the Registry.
Just connecting a drive will not put entries in the Registry.
