Question: I just bought a new Gateway PC with Windows 7 Home Premium on it. What is the best way to transfer both programs and files from the old PC to the new PC?
Answer: Take a look at my write-up here: How to transfer programs to another hard drive or computer.
There are plenty of utility
There are plenty of utility programs that will let you copy your entire old hard drive to your new one, but they typically force you to do a full replace.
PCmover is the only software I’ve found that moves specific programs, files and settings from your old PC to your new PC.
The easy-to-use wizard will guide you in selecting which programs, files and settings you want on your PC. When complete, your new computer will have the personality and functionality of your old PC. And, PCmover is safe – it removes nothing from your old PC, won’t overwrite anything on your new PC, and includes an easy “Undo” feature.
Here’s a more detailed review of Laplink, one of PCMover’s programs:
