Moving MS money files to a new computer

[shelleym]

Hello,
My computer crashed and I am in the process of moving everything to a new one. I have MS Money 2004 & can not get the .mny file off of my old computer. When I burn it to a disc it becomes a read only file, and somehow all usb ports have become unusable. The file is too large to email. I used the backup file, but when I try to restore it, MS Money shuts down. Any advice? Thanks!

As far as emailing it, instead send it to yourself through YouSendIt.com, with a 100 MB limit. I think you have 7 days to download it. Another service, with a 200 MB limit, is wetransfer.com.

Or use a flash drive.

Or are you able to slave the old drive to the new one and copy it over?
