hello xxbobxx, all your firefox bookmarks, customizations and other personal data are stored in the firefox profile folder: Profiles - Where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data

if you find your profile folder on your old pc, copy it onto a usb stick or find another way of moving it over to your new laptop, then you can import data like bookmarks into the new firefox profile: Recovering important data from an old profile

an alternative way of importing data over to your new laptop would be to set-up firefox sync between the two devices: How do I set up Sync on my computer?
