I have a new laptop, and I need to transfer all my software from the old laptop. Is there a documented way of doing this?

I do not have access to the original installation exe that I used on the old laptop. (I do have the serial number)

[Of course I'm happy to uninstall the software from the old laptop]

if you have serial number, just download the trial and transfer activation from the old one.

juanmacastillo,
Thanks for the reply, but I am not able to find the 7.0 download. I have called customer services, and they have advised me to raise a call with the US helpdesk (I bought the software from them because USD400 was cheaper than GBP400!).
I couldn't be bothered so I turned to a P2P network where I found someone that still had the 7.0 original installation executable.
I virus scanned the file an Norton said it's clean, so I ran the installation and entered my serial. After running the activation as Administrator on this machine it's all working fine now.
