1254402	2012-01-16 01:12:00	I am in the process of upgrading a PC from Vista to Windows 7 Home Premium. The problem is however, how do I transfer all of the emails and pictures from Vista to Win7, can the internet settings also be transferred? And because Windows 7 doesn't have Windows Mail installed, what can I use in place of that?	QW. (15883)
1254403	2012-01-16 01:24:00	Use the easy file transfer wizard. support.microsoft.com (support.microsoft.com) For mail use windows live mail. Or Outlook, Thunderbird etc.	Snorkbox (15764)

Imagine if the hard drive dies - then what happens to your stuff. Always have copies on at least two separate drives that are not plugged in to the same PC or into any power at all at the same time.	pctek (84)
1254405	2012-01-16 02:58:00	Can the internet settings also be transferred or do they need to be set up again in Windows 7?	QW. (15883)
1254406	2012-01-16 03:09:00	Have you read my link? It says the Internet settings can be transferred as well.	Snorkbox (15764)
1254407	2012-01-16 03:18:00	Have you read my link? It says the Internet settings can be transferred as well. I have now. Just read it properly. How good is Thunderbird over Outlook?	QW. (15883)
1254408	2012-01-16 03:20:00	Personally I use Outlook.	Snorkbox (15764)
1254409	2012-01-16 03:22:00	Personally I use Outlook. I read somewhere that Outlook doesn't isn't available with Windows 7.	QW. (15883)
1254410	2012-01-16 03:23:00	It isn't. It's part of MS Office in some versions.	Snorkbox (15764)
1254411	2012-01-16 03:26:00	So if I'm not installing Office, do I use Thunderbird?	QW. (15883)
