So my new computer will be arriving soon (yay! ^_^) And i have to go through the process of transfering my data. Movies, games etc, already have covered, but I had couple questions I couldn't puzzle out.

1. My current computer *pat old friend* currently has to Win7 Pro 64-bit, that i could through a student discount. The DS machine, I ordered has Win7 Premium. From what I gathered on the forums, gaming wise there's no real benefit from premium vs Pro...That being said, I did just buy the ruddy software :p So is there a way of applying the Pro version to my new machine, short of doing a reinstall?

2. Does anyone know a way to export/import saved passwords out of Google Chrome?

3. I currently use a wireless keyboard and mouse...Any clues as to whether the new computer will auto detect the equipment, or should a scrounge for something temporary to install the drivers?

As always thanks for the help guys :)

If you have win7 on the old pc, why not clone that drive and see if you can boot it in the new pc, that way the whole thing will be moved over to the new pc in one shot, os/apps/games, no need to reinstall anything, other then drivers.


Open Windows Anytime Upgrade by clicking the Start button . In the search box, type "anytime upgrade", and then, in the list of results, click "Windows Anytime Upgrade". from there follow to prompt to upgrade.

win7 64-bit ultimate, had its own drivers for my usb wireless keyboard/mouse.
