Transferring your e-mail and address book
See your old e-mail program’s online help for information on exporting and
importing e-mail messages and the address book. You can often export all of
your old e-mail messages or address book to a diskette, then import them from
the diskette into your new tablet PC’s e-mail program. You may also want to
consider printing the old information or using your old computer to send the
e-mail messages to yourself, then using your new tablet PC to retrieve the e-mail
messages.
Transferring your Internet shortcuts
You can export and import your old Netscape Navigator bookmarks or
Microsoft Internet Explorer favorites. For more information, see your Internet
browser program’s online help.
Installing your old printer or
scanner
Windows may have built-in support for older printers, scanners, or other
peripheral devices. This means you do not need any additional software. Newer
devices, however, usually require your original software installation CDs or
diskettes.
If you have trouble after you install the software for your old devices, you can
use System Restore to restore your tablet PC’s previous settings.
USB devices may have special installation instructions. See your USB device’s
installation guide.
