Could anyone tell me the easiest way to transfer the settings and files from an old computer to a ne

Hello everyone, Once again I find myself going to the pro's to find out what you'll probably think is an easy thing to do, but I need to swallow my pride and ask anyway. Before I ask my question I need to let you know that I am almost completely computer

illiterate. I can manage to do somethings but I have a feeling this is going to be difficult. I have an older model Dell, it's Dimension 2350 series and the one I would like to transfer these things over is also a Dell, but it's a Intel Pentium 4. .I really

don't have that much as far as files are concerned to transfer over, but mainly picutres of family and vacations. What I'm worried about is transferring the settings on my old computer to the newer one. I have a Windows XP CD disc that comes with a new computer.

Whatever help anyone can give me will be greatly appreciated and Thanks in advance!! Can you give me an idea what I will need to do first with the old one as in the steps I need to take.
