If you have a computer that is not working properly, it is time to restore it. This article will show you how to do this. First, you need to find the computer’s serial number. This can be found on the back of the computer or on a sticker on the front. Next, you need to find the files that are causing the computer to not work properly. These files may be located in different places on your hard drive or in different folders. To restore your computer, you will first need to identify which files are causing it problems. Then, you will need to copy these files over to your new computer. Finally, you will need to set up your new computer so that it can use these files correctly.


To verify we are using the same version of migwiz.exe put your XP disc into the drive and it should auto launch.  Choose “Perform additional tasks”.

Next choose Transfer files and settings.

The Files and Settings Transfer Wizard (FAST) will launch.  Click Next.

Leave the default selection of “New Computer”  Then click Next.

Since we put the FAST image up on the network we can select “I don’t need the Wizard Disk…”  Then Next.

Point the FAST Wizard to the network location or removable media where your USMT2.UNC image is stored and hit Next.

Now your files and settings will be installed on your new computer.  After the transfer has completed click Next.

Sometimes files will not transfer with FAST so you need to transfer a file or two manually which this image shows.  Everything else transferred that I selected.  So from here just click on Finish.

Finally you will be asked to reboot.  After rebooting your all done!
