My mom was given a Dell by my cousin's wife. It's nothing spectacular (Dimension 2400, 2.2 P4, 256MB, 40 gig HD, Win XP), but all she needs is something to get online with every once and a while and to do some word processing and spreadsheets.
Her old computer she inherited from my sister. It is an old Gateway, and I mean old. 233MHz P2, 32MB, 4.3 gig HD. It came with Windows 95, but I upgraded it to 98 for her several years back.
Anyway, I'm updating and cleaning up the Dell right now, but I'll be taking out to my folks' house later this week. I'm going to need to transfer all of her old files from the Gateway to the Dell.
I'm not real sure how to go about it. The Gateway has no burner, floppy is dead, and has no ethernet port. I'm pretty sure that the tranfer can bu done via USB, but I don't rightly know how to do it.
So, anyone willing to give me the basics for this? Step by step would be nice
