windows easy transfer error message

Trying to transfer files between old winxp Dell and my new win7 Dell.  I thought it would be easy to do it this way.  The two computers are connected on my network. 

With Windows Easy Transfer started, I reach the window that says "Check for compatibility" when I then receive the error message, "Windows Easy Transfer is unable to continue.  Please reboot the computer and try again"  I have rebooted both, it doesn't do anything.  I have searched for an answer on google but haven't found an answer to my problem.  Old computer is Dimension 8400 with winXP sp3, new computer XPS 8000 with win7.

.  This website that you refer to does nothing to address this issue.  I am having the exact same error transferring from a 32-bit Vista Dell to my new Windows 7 Dell.  Help!!!!!

I am having the same exact problem, except I am transferring from a Vista platform that is only 2 1/2 years old.  Did you find any help for this anywhere?
