Simple. Buy a DVD disc then copy all of your fonts, photos, documents to it then install with disc in your new pc. To copy your fonts:
START

Select all; copy; paste into CD/DVD drive (burner)

Could always hook the old hard drive to the ribbon cable of the new hard drive , and then transfer them from the old drive to the new drive.
If you do decide to do this. Make sure you check the new hard drives jumper pin settings. If it is set to "Cable Select", make sure you set the old hard drive to "Cable Select"
If the new hard drive is set as "Master" , then set the old hard drive as "Slave".
What ever you do, do not change the setting of the new hard drive. Set the old hard drive accordingly to my suggestions above.
Good Luck

It depends on how much data and how long you want to spend doing the transfer.
The easiest way is to make both computers part of a local area network and "share" their disk drives with each other. You can then use simple utilities like Windows Explorer and/or Network Neighborhood to click and drag the files or folders from one computer to the other. We do this all the time between three networked computers here at home, two of them wireless and the third connected via the USB port on our DSL wireless router. At work, we exchange files amongst dozens of computers on an Ethernet LAN, or between a home computer and a work computer using a VPN tunnel on the Internet.
You can compress (with a utility like WinZip) and copy your files to floppy disks or CD-ROMs and transfer them that way, but it is pretty slow. There is also software available that allows you transfer files via your RS-232 serial communication port or your parallel printer port, but that is really slow.
If you can afford it, a USB hard drive or a 1 GB USB "memoery stick" will allow you to copy files easily from one computer and then plug the hard drive or memory stick into a USB port on the other computer to transfer the files to its hard drive.
Temporarily installing the old drive as the "slave" in the new computer works well, as someone else has suggested, but you have to know what you are doing. I was able to recover most of my files on a hard disk that wouldn't boot just by installing the operating system on a bootable new drive, set as the "master," and then copying the files that were still readable from the un-bootable "slave" drive to new directories on the new drive.
This doesn't work with most program files, because they need an installer that links to the Windows registry. I just re-install those programs from the original distribution media. It should work just fine for copying fonts.
