I currently have "C" and "F" drives in my computer. "C"
is a new 80 gig hard drive, while "F" is my former "C"
drive with all the settings and email and addresses on
it. I am trying to use the Transfer Wizard to transfer
what I need but am not having much luck. Any help would
be appreciated! It can't find what I need to transfer
and I don't know where the data is either!

You should have run the FAST wizard before you moved the C: drive to the
F: drive. The best you can do now is to set the boot device to the drive
that contains the F: partition, run the FAST wizard, and save the file
on that partition or on the other drive if there is more room there.
Then boot to the new disk and rerun the FAST wizard and point it at the
file you saved.

You want to run the SP1 FAST wizard. The original FAST wizard had some
bugs.
