Can I import my Firefox settings & bookmarks from a external hard drive to Firefox that is installed on my laptop?

My PC recently died. Won't do anything when then power button is pushed. I have the C drive from the PC backed up on a external hard drive, & I would like to know if I can somehow transfer the Firefox bookmarks & settings from the external hard drive to my laptop that is also running Firefox. The PC was running Windows XP, the laptop is running Windows 7. Thanks, Alex
