New Computer
am contemplating about upgrading or getting a new computer, faster ,
bigger drive. My problem is some of the programs I now have on the present computer I don't have disks or floppies for them. Can I backup or copy these programs to a CD and transfer them to a upgraded or a new computer. I prefer to upgrade as the operating system would be WINXP SP2 rather then OEM. I know an OEM setup would not be able to accept such an approach, would WINXP. Can anybody help.
