Alright.. lets say i have alot of needed files on this computer that i need put on another computer, but i have to keep the harddrive in this computer.. and i was wondering if theres an easy/fast/safe way to do this w/o resolving to burning them on a DVD w/ DVD burner cuz i dont have those, and i really need to do this.. because all the files on this comp are very much needed for the other computer, as for, i, a music composer.. i need all of my music composing programs/vsti's and evrything else. Back to topic, any safe easy way?

2 options that spring to mind.
1. Buy an external hard-drive, or a USB stick, or some form of portable device and save the files you need to transfer on that.
2. As long as the files aren't too large you could make an e-mail draft with those files as an attachment. Gmail offer a decent attachment size, if you don't have a gmail account already and you choose this method, I'll give you one.

Take option 1 and buy an external hard-drive and transfer everything at once, or buy a USB stick(or some other portable device) and transfer everything bit by bit.

if you have a router, put everything you want to send in a zip file, and file transfer it. you can use aim, it'll transfer at about 900kb-1 mb a second, so it shouldn't take more than a few hours. that's what i did when i got my new computer.
