  6. USMT • User State Migration Tool • Transfers user files and folders, display properties, taskbar options, and browser and e-mail settings from a Windows 9x or NT/2000/XP computer. • Helps make the transition from one computer to another smoother w/o having to copy files and reconfigure OS settings.

  9. XP Device Manager • Offers tools to support XP that function nearly the same as Windows 2000 • Update Device Driver Wizard • Sigverif.exe scans for drivers that are not digitally assigned • Does not show legacy devices that are PnP by default How many rednecks does it take eat a 'possum? Two. One to eat, and one to watch for cars.

  11. System Restore • Utility similar to the ScanReg Tool in earlier versions of Window • Use to restore the system to a restore point • Cannot be executed from a command prompt • Restoration is taken from a snapshot of the system state that was created earlier called a Restore Point
