Opened IE, Favorites and created a new folder, copied and pasted the old faves files in and bingo, now I only need to get my Outlook Express address book imported and I will be one happy bunny. I saved that as a csv file but it has changed itself into an Excel file and the new OE is not playing ball. Ah the joys of a new PC ( not)
I am going to put my old hard drive into the new PC, just need a power cable extension. As the new PC has a SATA drive and the old hard drive is an IDE device, am I correct in thinking that I can just plug the IDE cable into a spare slot on the new MB, and that Windows will just recognise it as another drive without me having to set it as a slave.??
