The automated script is not available to download, can you make a mirror link?

Thanks for the writeup. I was thinking of doing a dual boot with xp and windows 7. If I were to do that, could I still use this guide? Would I need additional steps or make the txt file a bit differently?

Thanks

I’m seriously thinking on buying a version of ‘Windows 7′ (European) when it arrives on the selves in November 2009. What’s the best , easiest and quickest way to use a data transfer cable from XP to Windows 7? I’m a bit scared that I could lose all data when transferring. Is there a data transfer cable on the market yet?

Went through the scanstate and loadstate command options. All options are clear except the /sf option in loadstate. Can not find the option in loadstate syntax . Could you please explain its function.

I was really worried about my data when i was thinking to move from XP to 7 but this seems to be the resolution to the problem.

I tried using USMT and transfered the data but what it did is that it created a new user account and transfered the data in it . i belive the resign is that my account name in xp was and in 7 i named it hulk but overall it worked.

great guide
