    Ya see, i have an old Windows 2000 in my Living Room, and a Windows XP in my room. I want to extract a program from my old Desktop (the windows 2000) and put it on my windows XP... I have a pen drive but my old desktop doesn't have the file transfer wizard.. any ideas?

    if you want to copy a program from one pc to the other I suggest to rar it first. put it on one file.. then just copy?

    can't you just copy the folder to your pen drive? and just copy the folder to your xp computer.

    If they are networked, you can send it through the cables, or wireless...

    he got it.

    you can not just simply copy PS to another source. you need to install it from the cd on each system. there is too much registry, and hidden files that it is utterly impossible.

    he's probably talking about an older program that just ran from that folder..
