Need some help with PC data transfer to laptop
 

Hi Guys. I have a bad virus on my older XP home pc. I have regularly saved most of my files and moved them to an external hard drive. I have a new laptop with Vista that I use mostly now.

My question is, how can I remove these recent files from my home XP to my laptop Vista. I think I may have to reformat this time. It is about time anyway but didn't want to lose any saved information.

Thanks in advance.

put both on same network - be sure virus is removed first

or plug ext drive into laptop

Thanks Randy.

This virus has disabled all of my administration on the home pc. It keeps covering over everything I do with pop ups. I haven't had this sort of problem before in 13 years being online. I am going to try to move manually with an external hard drive. Thanks.
