To import the certificate and its private key, you must include the
private key in the export and export to a PKCS #12 format (*.pfx). When
you import to the new computer, this will import the certificate and
private key for use as you require.
But...
The private key must be enabled for export, which was decided at the
time of acquiring the certificate, if this option is not available, you
will not be able to export/import this certificate
