    Programs etc. will need to be installed on the new laptop from scratch. As regards files, get the new laptop up and running and you could transfer files over your home network to the new laptop, or if you dont have one, a crossover cable will connect the two computers for file transfer. Newer network cables may also work instead of a crossover cable, havent done this in years
