Hi

Its not the same hardware, and user has a lot of information in his
computer files, emails, pictures.

Any idea?

What do you mean "any idea"? Either look into Acronis' Enterprise
imaging software with Universal Restore or get busy and hand-upgrade
all the workstations. Why would any of your users have data saved
locally? Bad idea. With that many workstations, you should be backing
up to the server or to an NAS. Since you apparently don't have this
system set up, make sure your users - or you - back up all local data
before upgrading. You should be backing up regularly anyway!
