It just so happens that I went thru the same thing a day or so ago. I ourchased a new PC and needed to move all of my data from one PC to another.

The best solution is to buy a copy of PCMover by LapLink. You can download the software but you will need the USB connector cable so might be better to go to your local Staples or Office Max. They should have it.

The only problem I had was that some of my programs (mainly Microsoft apps) requested that I insert the original CD when loading for the first time.

I also has some issues with my email accounts. If you do, then open OutLook Express (if that's what you have) and export (Tools/Accounts/Mail/Export) your accounts to a file and import them on the laptop.
