In short, you'll need to do these:

1. copy the unfinished files on your other computer;
   
2. copy their corresponding .torrent files on your other computer;
   
3. double-click each one of the copied .torrent files on your other computer to add them in the tasklist and make sure that in the dialog box that opens, the download path is identical to the one where you copied the uncompleted files.
   

So, first, go and copy your uncompleted files on the other computer, in a folder which will be (or is) the default download folder for the BitComet client on that computer.

Then you'll need to copy the .torrent files for each of the task's contents you moved, to your other computer, too. Here you might have 2 choices:

1. Go to
   Program Files\BitComet\Torrents
   folder and locate each torrent corresponding to each task you want to move.
   
   
   Copy all of them to the
   Torrents
   folder on the other computer. You will have to make sure that you copy the exact torrent for the task, because if you tried/downloaded several .torrent files for the same content you may have several with similar name. A good clue is that the torrent name be the same as the torrent task's name in BC window.
   
   
   Once the .torrent files are copied on the other computer, double-click everyone of them to open and add them as tasks in your BC client. Make sure that the save path is the same as the folder where you copied the uncompleted files. BC will perform a hash-check and pick the task from where it was left.

   
   

2. If you have
   Torrent Share
   enabled in BC then go to the
   Program Files\BitComet\Archive
   folder. Check the Summary tab for each of the tasks you want to move. Right-click and copy in the clipboard the
   Hash
   value from there. Then open the search panel in
   Archive
   folder window you opened and paste in the search-box the hash value you copied and search for the respective torrent file (the torrents in the Archive folder have these unique hash values as filenames). Once the file is found, copy it to the correspondent Archive folder on your other computer. Repeat this step for all the torrents you want to move.
   
   
   If your other computer has no other tasks already added in BC then copy also the
   share
   folder from you first to the second computer in BitComet folder; once you have copied all the files, just open BC on your new computer and go to
   Torrent Share-->Archive
   in the left
   Favorites
   panel. You should see there all the torrents. Just double-click every one of the to add them in the tasklist.
   
   
   But if you
   do
   already have other tasks, on the other BC client, then do not copy the
   share
   folder. Instead, just go into the Archive folder on your target computer and double-click every torrent file you copied, to add it in the tasklist.

The BitComet folder's path on the target machine where you must perform all these operations, will be the same as on your source one if you also use Win XP on it, or will be Users\%userprofile%\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\BitComet on Vista and Win 7 - 32bit versions and Users\%userprofile%\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\BitComet on Vista and Win 7 - 64bit versions.
