Hi, I have a client and his computer running windows 98 had crashed. I
put in a new hard drive and installed windows XP. I have put the old
hard drive in a external hard drive enclosure and have connected it to
the new hard drive with a USB cable. All the douments on the old hard
drive are accessable and I have transfered most of them to the new
hard drive. How can I get the desktop to show all the icons that were
on the old hard drive on the desktop of the new hard drive.
What I mean is that in windows XP if I go to C:----documents &
settings----Admninistrator----Destop I would find all the icons on my
desktop. How would i access this folder in windows 98.
Thanks
Daniel Bolour

That is quite easy. Windows 95 and Windows 98 by default store all of
the user icons in c:\windows\desktop. You can then copy all of the
items (shortcuts and files) from that folder over to the current
desktop.

Thank you very much.

Windows 95 and 98 have the desktop folders in:
(hardisk were you installed the windows):WINDOWS/desktop
and the folder My Documents in:
(hardisk were you installed the windows):my documents
