 * Hi,oo7ml
 * Simple copy all folders from old server to new server.Then
    enter into folder
   what you have uploaded into new server then rename wp-config.php file to temp_wp-
   config.php.
 * Now time to run new server URL at browser mean newdomain.com
    then browser will
   display and ask some settings section. Click on button Create configuration file
   then give your necessary info for DB. Then it will create a wp-config.php file
   automatically.(If not then browser will display some code then you have to copy
   them and open now temp_wp_config.php delete all contents of it then paste what
   you have copied.Now rename temp_wp-config.php file as it is previous mean wp-
   config.php)
 * Now click below button at browser.
    It will ask some site information to you 
   then fill it .then Login in now. After login into your site then check your user
   site also.
 * After that activate your theme what you need and then install a wordpress importer
   plugin now.
 * Then after go to Tools menu form left side menu list.
    Click on Import button
   then import your XML file her what you have downloaded.
 * I think you will be get idea about this.If any problem then inform me.
