Load Up The Files For The Move To Vista


Computer hardware manufacturers predict that most people will buy new computers rather than try to upgrade older ones to run Windows Vista. But with all of those files and customized settings on the old computer, switching over is no simple task.

Belkin is offering a solution to the transfer problem with its Easy Transfer cable for Windows Vista, designed for people with computers running Windows XP. The package sells for less than $40 at most retail and online outlets.

The transfer is done by loading the supplied software onto the old computer and attaching the cable to U.S.B. ports on both computers. The Easy Transfer Wizard is run on the XP side — the Vista side has it as part of the operating system — and after some fine-tuning to identify which files will be moved, the files and settings make the Vista leap.

The package includes a copy of Laplink’s PCsync. Belt-and-suspenders types could mirror the two PCs by running the PCsync software regularly. STEPHEN C. MILLER
