Are you sure that during the export, you exported it to xml and not some other 
file format?

Anyhow, the easiest and best way to move data between two machines is just to 
copy your .mnemosyne directory (useally in C:\documents and 
settings\Caio\.mnemosyne) between the two machines.

The file name from which you import is irrelevant. If it already contains cards 
with the same data, these are skipped.
