On the plus side, XP7 reports its status all the way through the process, including a progress bar and timer that counts down the estimated time to completion. The process of transferring our XP hard drive of about 100GB, took almost three hours. They weren't kidding about WiFi transfers being slow. An advanced button offers to protect the tool with a password, to control of a filter for excluding files, the ability to drill into source and target volumes.īy the way, when we chose to transfer files via an existing network, which happened to be wireless, a courteous message appeared warning us that such a transfer medium would be slow and prone to failure. A large window then appeared with two panes, one each to represent source and target machines and their storage volumes. Now working from the target, testers ran XP7 again, and when prompted indicated that it was the new computer. The tool overtakes both machines, and neither can be used for anything else during the transfer process. On the source computer (running XP), it simply reads data and sends it over the wire to the target (Windows 7) machine, which uses the data to implement an XP virtual machine. If again the latter, it lists ways to connect the two machines and then to run XP7 on the new machine.īy the way, this tool is non-destructive for either machine. If the latter, it then asks if you're working at the new machine or the old one.

The company last week announced that Lifeboat would distribute the $89 tool in North America in addition to current distributor Synnex. Zinstall and its XP7 automatic migration tool have filled that void since late 2009. But that wasn't the reality, and companies that chose never to adopt Vista were given no good options by Microsoft to automate the move from XP straight to Windows 7.
