Want to move QBpro2004 from Windows 98 computer to new computer running windows XP. What would be the best way to get this done??
Just install QB on the new computer.
To get the company file from one computer to the other and all of your data such as my documents, etc:
If you can, hook the two computers together on a lan and copy all the data from one computer to the other.
Burn a CD or DVD with the data.
install a second hard drive in the 98 machine and copy all of your data to the second hard drive. Pop the new hard drive into the new machine as a slave and grab all of your old data at your leisure.
You can just copy a backup file of your company file and then do a restore on the new machine. A backup file is much smaller than a company file.
