Transferring Has

[Cyber Source]

good luck, you'll need it! That will freak on the new hardware but it
may copy over and you can just reinstall drivers, etc. If it were xp,
you would be totally screwed, I have tried that before. Doesnt work
cause you know, you might be stealing it and there would be no reason
for a global hardware change....yea right. xp totally sucks and it
started with 2k. Ever try to deal with permissions on 2k? I once had to
give a user administrative priviledges simply because they wanted there
winfax to auto print on incoming faxes, true story!
