Moving data from XP HD to Vista

Posted: 10-18-2007, 06:23 PM
I have a hard drive removed from my now non-functional laptop which was
running XP. The Hard drive is fine and all my data is intact on the drive.
I have the drive connected by USB to the new laptop and Vista recognises the
drive and can read the data. Is there a simple way of migrating the data
into Vista on the new laptop? The Windows Easy Transfer has worked well for
me in the past when the old system is a working computer, but there is no
functionality to use it on a hard drive connected as an external device.
Hope someone has a good idea about this, I hate the idea of having to go
folder by folder and pull things over manually (and probably miss stuff).
Thanks.
