Windows Easy Transfer vs. User State Migration Tool
Do you know if there is a difference between these two tools? MS site sometimes points to one and sometimes to another when recomending a tool for migrating from XP to Windows 7,
Also, should I expect problems or take special steps when migrating from XP x86 to Windows 7 X64, using one of these or similar tool?
