Program Transfer Second HD
Jun 13, 2008
First: I'm thinking of getting a second HD and I want to leave the OS on the main HD and move / transfer all my programs like office, World of Warcraft, DVD programs etc. Is this possible or will it cause a conflict? Is there a good way to do this?
Secondly: I had to use the Vista Upgrade option on this disk to correctly fix some of my files which had been deleted by a poor vista update, namely system restore and windows update. Now I get rnadom IRQ errors and USB Port errors which crash the computer. I have updated to SP1 on Home Premium x 64 bit what could be cuasing this problem?

I am attempting to transfer files & settings using the Belkin Easy Transfer cable from an XP computer to a Vista computer. All starts well by showing that the two computers are connected. But after finding the files and settings and providing the amount of data to be transferred, it starts gathering information but then shows a flashing disconnection icon in the upper right of both computers' transfer windows and freezes. This happens at a different place each time, but early in the procedure (after about 10 minutes). Would anyone have any advice? I have done everything by the book, as far as I'm aware.

Actually, I am not very good at iPod stuff and I always make a mess up about my iTunes and iPod. But now it is very easy for me to do with my iTunes and iPod, I can easily transfer data between my iPod nano and iPhone, backup my iPod data in my computer and put songs and videos from my computer to my iPod/iPhone without iTunes.
SO I FOUND AISEESOFT 'IPOD TRANSFER'............

I have a HP desktop running Vista premium. I "had" an Emachine that ran XP, but it died. (I think the power supply went out) Whatever the case I am not going to get the XP computer fixed, but I do want some files off the old harddrive out of it. How do I do that? I'm hearing of a USB adapter of some sort that will do it...is that true? I went on Ebay, saw some USB's but am not sure they will do what I need for them to do.

I got as far as connecting the transfer cable on both computers. The action lights flickered on both for about 15min and then they stopped. I waited for another half an hour but nothing further was happening, so I eliminated the transfer Windows. I found that no data has been transferred although both have Win.Vista Business.

I have 2 vista and 2 xp mechines on my network. When I transfer files between my 2 vista mechines I see transfer rates between 5 and 7 mgs, but when transfering from vista to xp I'm lucky if I see 1 mg. I mainly noticed it because I just set up a xp for file backup and its not running a firewall (not even windows firewall) and the data transfer is taking forever.

I have problem with uploading lots of small files to FTP over Vista. I tried few programs for FTP transfer and it doesn't resolve problem. If I uploaded big files (100 - 300 MB) FTP transfer working fine, but if I uploaded lots of small files (100 x 5 Kb etc.) connection was terminated after few files transfered (every 20 - 50 files). Error message is "server connection failed". If I try this on same computer with Win XP it is work fine.

so my laptop is pretty much dead, wont be using it ever again. And it has Vista Home Premium 32Bit on it. I have decided to make a desktop instead, cheaper in my opinion, and I don't really need a laptop anymore. So i was wondering if i can transfer the OS to my desktop. I heard you just have to type in the Key, and if it does not go through you activate it by phone. Is this true? Can i do this. It would in turn save me around 150$. Also if this does work can i really upgrade it to a 64Bit for 10$ or something?

Or should it just be straight forward its only music i would like to transfer, all the steps on Microsoft's websites are a bit vague and really didn't get me anywhere.

the instructions for both the cable and Windows Easy Transfer program are practically non-existant. The directions for the cable said to install the software onto the XP machine (easy enough), and then connect the two computers with the cable, again, very simple. Then I was to follow the on screen instructions.
Instructions were as follows: "Windows automatically detects the connection". That's it, no buttons to click, nothing to type in, no load screen, no scan, nothing. So I waited... and waited... and waited. Nothing happened. So I unhooked the cable, disconnected both computers from the internet, disabled any and all firewalls, spyware software, antivirus software, anything that could possibly interfere with the connection. And I tried again... and again... and again. Not Happy, not simple, not easy! Am I doing something wrong? Did I miss a step? Or is Vista really the problem everyone has been proclaiming it?

I have Windows Vista Ultimate x64, and it came with 2 set of program files: program files, and program files x86. Since my hard drive is only 100 gigs, I was wondering if I could delete the normal program files and keep the x86 ones, or would that cause problems?

I'm running Vista Home Premium on a 2 month old HP. There are 3 harddrives --- the original one from HP, the old one from my old computer(both internal), and a drive that is external, connected via USB, thatI use to hold my backup disk image files.For a few weeks, no problem. Lately, every time I double click on theexternal drive in Windows Explorer, Windows Easy Transfer startsrunning. If I right-click instead and then click on "Open", there'sno problem (Easy Transfer does not open). Any ideas on how to stop this unwanted loading of Easy Transfer?

Does Vista have a method of verifying activation status when activation has been transfered to another computer? I recently built a new system and activated my Retail Vista License on that machine. Interestingly, the "old" machine no longer will finish booting it "hangs" shortly after starting and a network connection never occurs. Is there some "deactivation" scheme to prevent a user from running more than one copy of the program?

I want to go back to XP from Vista only because I want to sync my laptop and desktop and don't have the money to upgrade Vista to the business version. I have several valuable emails, though, in Windows Mail on the Vista desktop. How can I save them to a flash drive so that I can wipe out the partition and reinstall XP? I will not do the switch if I cannot take my email trail with me.
I am a PhD student so my email documents are extremely valuable and I cannot take the risk of losing them. I've done this before when going from an older XP machine to a newer one, but I've never done this trying to go from Vista back to XP.
