make a backup using Acronis True Image from your existing laptop, then recover the backup image to your new laptop.
That would only work if the two PCs are virtually identical - there's bound to be different drivers involved for different hardware.

At best you will spend a long time changing drivers and at worst you will get nothing but blue screens.
