Changing computers

[Scoobert]

I am getting a new computer (well, building), and I don't want to feel like I am having a fresh wipe of windows, I have setting that get changed over time, just little stuff, but It takes months, if not years, to get all the setting fine tweaked.

Anyone out there know a way to transfer my windows over, along with all the settings, or after I install windows on my new PC, just send all the settings over, most of the programs and files I can get back(I have been saving 90% of my .EXE and .ZIPs just in case I had to reinstall windows). Any help provided would be very welcome.

i've never used this function... but theres a "feature" in windows XP called File and Settings Transfer Wizard. under Start -> Programs -> accessories -> system tools but as i said i've never used it before

good luck
