Windows 7RC to Home Premium: easy transfer.

Currently on 7100 64bit (RC). Got my Home Premium 64bit full DVD. Is there an app in the RC that allows for easy backup and transfer of internet settings, favourites, and email messages (Live Mail + imported folders from the old Outlook Express that was on XP until this summer's hardware upgrade) to store on a second hard drive and easily restore once I've installed Home Premium on the repartitioned and formatted first hard disk? I wasn't the one who installed the RC (I chose the parts but reseller built the system for me), so please excuse my ignorance if this is just a case of inserting Home Premium and instructions to do exactly this appear on the screen.

Thanks in advance,

Denis
 
I used the built in transfer when I upgraded from the last RC to the RTM version of Ultimate and it brought over everything including my Firefox profile and plugins. I would suggest if at all possible to do the install to a clean drive if possible just in case it doesn't bring over something you want though. That is the way I did it.
 
I will install to a clean drive but would like to save my settings, etc... to a second drive beforehand for easy restore.
