  1. well here goes the ways

    write a dvd

    transfer using ethernet port cable

    use bluetooth to help you out

    you may use, pendrive to transfer vilumes at faster speed

    or use wifi networking between the two to enable transfer at 100MBPS


  2. Do you only want to transfer files, or did you also want to transfer installed programs from your computer onto the new laptop?

    For just transferring files, you can use a usb flash drive (copy them to the drive and then plug it into the laptop and copy them over), or burn them to a CD-R or DVD-R, or better yet get a usb data cable and connect both computers directly.

    For transferring installed programs, there's a program called PCMover from LapLink that is able to transfer installed programs from one computer to another.  Used to be another called SystemSuite7, but they removed this feature in version 8 and aren't selling version 7 any longer.

    Lastly, you could look at a disk imaging program like Norton Ghost or Genie Backup Manager.  They'll make an exact image of your hard drive and you could then restore it onto your laptop, giving you everything you had on your old computer.  It would however also wipe out whatever was on the laptop.

    Plenty of choices - hope this helps :-)

  3. tons of ways.

    fastest is using a transfer cable ie usb or eithernet to use easy transfer.

    flash drive, a little slower unless u have an 8gb and all ur stuff is a total of 7gb

    dvds, slower, but as effective as the two above.
