Novice techie question: need to upgrade/replace a workstation on a 2000 peer-to peer office network. Intend to rebuild with XP Pro. Will use Files and Settings Transfer Wizard to copy documents etc., but will it also preserve and redetect network settings - Mapped drives, scheduled network backups, etc? Or do I have to do it the hard way, write it all down (will anyway)and redo it manually? Rebuilding on new machine, new hard drive, so 'upgrade' option n/a.
