    Hi there, hoping I can get some more help please. I have an HP Laptop running XP Pro. My other laptop, a fairly new Toshiba laptop has a problem and will probably have the fixed disk replaced next week.

    When the Toshiba comes back, is there some way I can just copy all the files, programs and operating system from the HP to the Toshiba to save me having to reinstall all the programs one by one?
