transferring document folders and documents

Hello,

I have a new computer and would like to copy document folders and documents from my old computer to my new. Both have XP SP2 with all the updates.

My old computer has some user profile and registry issues. None of those issues would be copied over would they? Aren't all those issued in files like NTUSER.DAT, etc.?

All I want to copy are Document folders and documents. Is there any risk of transferring problems from one computer to the other?

--

Respectfully,
Bob Brannon

Hi Bob,

Just copying My Documents from one to the other is fine. No reg info
will be transferred.
