My previous computer with XP crashed. The new computer is running Windows7 and has a new C: drive. When I installed Firefox on the new C:, I didn't get the old book marks with the install. Where do I find my old bookmarks? Thank you.

My previous computer with XP crashed. The new computer is Running Windows 7. The two old drives, previously C: (now E:) and G: (now D:) are installed in the new computer. Firefox was installed in the old C: drive (now E:). How do I get the bookmarks from the old C: drive (now E:) to work the the new installation of Firefox on the new computer C: drive?

The NEW profile is listed as above on the new C:, just created this morning.

The OLD XP profile can't be found on the old C: drive (now E:) using the above info.

The old XP Firefox profile is out there somewhere, I just can't find it.

Thanks for trying
