upgrade; 98 to XP

Posted: 11-13-2003, 10:35 AM
I've just upgraded my OS from 98se to XP Home Edition and
I seem to have lost Norton Antivirus/Firewall, address
details, Photoshop 7 and various other programs. Does
anyone know how to 'find' them on my computer and get
them working again?

The easiest way is just to install them again. If you use the same folder
names etc., they should install right on top of the old ones.

Some may not work with XP, even if reinstalled. Norton won't work unless it
is a recent release.
