Hi Everyone,
I am hoping someone can give me suggestions on how to back up my computer
and install everything onto a new computer.
I have a windows 7 laptop that is almost 5 1/2 years old and it is giving
out. I have had it cleaned, repaired and all that good stuff and it is time
to get a new computer.
Right now I do not have the money for a new computer but my mom bought a
windows 7 computer brand new 3 years ago, used it 6 months and didn't like
it so she bought a desktop computer. She has offered to give it to me since
she knows I need the computer. Her laptop is in great shape because all she
ever did was do email on it and would occasionally use explorer if she was
sent a greeting card. Otherwise the computer is completely clean and free
of any problems at all. It doesw have more memory than my computer but
otherwise has windows 7, 64 gb and all that stuff just like my current
computer has.
So what I am wondering is there a way to back up everything that is on my
computer so when I get the one from my mom all I have to do is put the
backed up files onto the new computer and things will be just as they are on
my new computer?
I have looked at carbonite but wondered if there was possibily something
else that people have used and can recommend it to me.
I have so much stuff on my computer like favorites in explorer, bookmarks in
mazilla, important emails I must keep plus all the updates and apps of
Window eyes. I really don't want to have to start over again. Also my
current computer is completely free of any virus's and things like that, it
is just worn out according to the repair man I have taken it to. I trust
the man completely because he has done things for me when I had issues for a
long long time.
Any help will greatly be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Dave
