Is it possible to transfer my whole computer to another?

There are software packages out there, like Acronis True Image that will help you do that. BUT.. and this is a big but.. unless the hardware is almost exactly the same, then the HAL (hardware abstraction level) won't work.. and your new machine will be useless. Another way to go is to make your entire machine into a Virtual Machine file. Search for P2V (physical to virtual) on Microsoft.. they have a free utility, probably under the Russinovich blog or tools site. Then, you can take that VM file, and on another machine, running Win 7 with Virtual Machines... or add VM to one of the older versions.. then you can run the virtual machine on top of your new machine. ... it doesn't work precisely the same, since you have another OS on top, and direct access to peripherals may be limited or even blocked. VMWare and other virtualization softwares are options.. Deep Freeze, Acronis, Norton Ghost, (others..) and even a free download of Linux and the " dd " utility will let you make bit-by-bit copies.

So a lot of software, such as Windows, will have to be reactivated on the new computer (yes, even though it's a bit-for-bit copy. It knows its on different hardware). If you're running an OEM version of Windows (one that came with the computer), you'll have to go out and get a new Windows license- the OEM installs are only allowed to be used on one computer. Not one computer at a time (like the retail licenses).

You would have to have a computer with almost the same components installed to do that with any degree of success as said before using Norton Ghost or Acronis True Image also you normally find you will have to reactivate windows and office etc but it is sometimes possible :-)
