I'm trying to get pictures from my old computer to my new computer.

Asked by cadetjoecool (218points) January 8th, 2012

Ok, so I’ve got a bunch of old family photos and documents on this really old computer I grew up on, and I want to transfer them onto a new computer.
Here’s some of it’s specs:

It’s running Version Windows 98 Second Edition 4.10.2222 (98SE).

It’s got a read only disk drive (which I haven’t been able get it to read anything yet).

A floppy disk drive (which we’ve never used because supposedly it doesn’t work, but I don’t know that for sure)

It’s got the old style mouse and keyboard ports which do work (I managed to find a mouse and keyboard that that fit the bill)

The RGB out (video) is working (I have it plugged into my TV)

It’s got two USB ports (I tried using a flash drive but couldn’t get any results)

two phone ports (It use to be connected to dial up, but we don’t have that anymore)

And then a few other ports such as mic, speakers, printer, joystick.

So that’s where I am, any ideas?
