Re: How to import user settings?

Dude just open the external drive and copy the My documents folder and
favorites folder into your current
c:\documents and settings\user profile directory.

If your not sure what that is, open MY Computer and in the address bar
type in

%userprofile%

Cookies and Application data are useless. If you used outlook, your
gonna need some help to get the PST file, It is buried in Applications,
Microsoft, Outlook or something.

Cheers on the backup. Was a good move.
