how would i save all my my files because i got a new modem,,and im switching them out,,how do i save the files

You cannot save files to a modem. You can configure it but that is not the save as saving files. Maybe you need to clarify your questions.

this is the easiest way. there are many free file backup sites on the web. simply upload them there until you need them again.

I am assuming that what you got is a new CPU (the main box for your computer) rather than just a new modem (which is one small card inside the box).

With the computer off, open the old computer, and take the hard drive out of it.

With the computer off, open the new computer. Unplug the two largest cable that go into the back of the CD drive. (There may only be two cables). Plug those cables into the hard drive from the old computer.

Boot up the new computer and you should be able to see the old hard drive as a "D" (or some letter past "C") drive.

Copy any files that you want over to the new hard drive (C drive).

Be aware that if you copy PROGRAMS they will probably NOT work on the new hard drive. You will need to reinstall them. All you need to copy over are any data file (pictures, documents, etc) that you have created.

When done, turn off the computer, remove the old hard drive and plug back in the CD drive.

ASK AND YE SHALL RECIEVE. GO TO THE STORE AND FIND A DISC THAT READS 'DATA DISC (DVD-R). IT HAS 4.7 GB'S TO STORE
ON IT. ONCE YOU STORE THE TINY FILES YOU CAN SAVE THE IMPORTANT STUFF. YOU CAN DO THE HARDWAY AND USE WIRES FROM ONE COMPUTER TO THE NEXT TO TRANSFER THEM BUT IT TAKES FOREVER,

Files arent saved on modems.... what exactly are you trying to do?

Added: Yeah knightmare.... just where in the question does it say 'i have a dvd burner' ???
