Ok, it's time for me to upgrade. I am going to replace my old win 98 system with a new XP Home edition computer. I have been using this old system for a long time, and I need to transfer some programs over to the new XP system. The only thing I really care about is Autocad version 12 for windows. I have been using it for a long time, I know it like the back of my hand, and I love it. I do not like the newer versions. I want to keep version 12. The only problem is that a few of the original install floppies (remember those?) went bad.
I know there are programs / products out there that will transfer programs from your old system to the new one, with some degree of success. Which ones do you recommend? I would hate to buy something and find out that it works with everything but autocad 12. Let be very clear: this is the only software package I care about. Everything else I can just reinstall.
Is there a faq somewhere that details doing this by hand? I am pretty handy, but I don't know much about xp. I can place the new and old computers on the same LAN to transfer the files.
Please give me some tips.
