Installing your old programs
You probably use some programs that did not come installed on your new
computer, such as personal finance software, graphics programs, or games.
Spend some time going through your old computer’s
Start and Programs
menus, making note of any programs you want to install on your new
computer. Locate your original program installation CDs and installation
guides. Your original CDs and guides should contain any serial numbers or
product ID keys that may be required for program installation and
registration. Remember to check the manufacturer’s Web site for important
program updates.
Tips & Tricks If your new computer comes with a newer version of a
program, it is usually best to use the newer version than
to install the old one.
