In windows XP you can assign a shortcut key to a specific screen saver and activate that screen saver anytime. Is something like this possible in Windows 7? If yes, how is this accomplished?

How do I restore cd-r backup discs from windows xp onto windows 7
location:
microsoft.com - date:
September 2, 2011
A friend of mine made backup cd-r's from his Windows XP, and now has a Windows 7. He is trying to restore those backup files onto his new computer, which is running Windows 7 now. How can I instruct a person not familiar with computer technology on how
to do this. I would do this for him, if I were closer. He's in Florida and I'm in Pennsylvania. I need to explain in very simple terms to him on how to do this.
