That depends on what Operating System you have on each.

op is xp on both.

If you are able to connect the two together - possibly via a network cable - then the Files and Settings Transfer Wizard (Accessories, System, I think) should do what you want, and will give some examples of how to make the connection between the two PCs.

same Q for me.. cd writer is knackered on old one, so may have to do memory stick swap-eroony..

or can both pc's be linked up, with USB / other cable..?

Hi Bat999 all i want to transfer are my favorites Thanks Pearl

afaik, favourites are just small text files- could easily email them to yourself (copy and paste the URL's..)

dont forget to backup email addresses and messages- that's my main concern..
