Installing your old programs
You probably use some programs that did not come installed on your new
tablet PC, 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 tablet PC. 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
publisher’s Web site for important program updates.
If you have trouble after installing your old programs, you can restore your
tablet PC’s previous settings using System Restore.
Tips & Tricks If your new tablet PC comes with a newer version of a
program, it is usually better to use the newer version than
to reinstall the old one.
