Halp... I getting a new laptop today since my old lappy fan blew over the weekend.Old workhorse uses Win7 Will be getting a Win 8, so wondering is it possible to transfer the files over or a clean reinstall is required. If can copy the files over, what files should I copy? This post has been edited by gladfly: Apr 8 2013, 11:56 AM

It depends on your line. I think it won't take long if you're on fiber.
