Backup recovery from dead Windows 7 32-bit machine to new Windows 7 64- bit machine. RRS feed

  • Question

  • My windows 7 32-bit laptop (Toshiba Satillite) stopped working suddenly due to a damaged motherboard. Having been told that a new motherboard would cost more than a new computer i decided to buy a new laptop. My new laptop (also a Toshiba Satillite) has windows 7 64-bit installed on it.

    Having setup my new laptop, i need to restore some files (Emails, internet favourites etc) from the last backup i made of my broken laptop. This backup was made in November 2011 and is saved on my external harddrive. 

    Can anyone tell me how i get these files from the backup onto my new Windows 64-bit computer?

    Thanks for you help

    The Windows Desktop Perfmon and Diagnostic tools forum is to discuss performance monitor (perfmon), resource monitor (resmon), and task manager, focusing on HOW-TO, Errors/Problems, and usage scenarios.

    Since your post is off-topic, I am moving it to the off topic forum.
