Re: Transfering files fom an old hard disc.
First, understand your "programs" must be reinstalled in order for you to use them. Simply copying them to the new drive does not "install" them so Windows can run them. But all your document files - those files you created with your program can simply be copied or moved over.
For me, the best way to open two windows, one showing the source location (the folder on the old drive with the files) and one for the destination (a folder on your new drive). Then you can "drag" them over. You do this by "click and hold" the mouse button on the old file, move the mouse to the new folder and let go ("drop") the mouse button to paste it in the new location.
Alternatively you can go to the old drive, right click on the file you want to copy or move, select copy (or cut to move). Then move your mouse to the new location, right click in an empty space in the destination folder, and select paste.
