The relevant variable is comint-scroll-to-bottom-on-output.  The emacs
default is nil.
You need the value to be t.  You can set it with

C-h v comint-scroll-to-bottom-on-output <RET>
Then follow the customize to permanently change it.

Please verify that emacs is actually seeing the .emacs file that you copied.
Start up of emacs on a new PC is always a nuisance because the assumptions
about
HOME directory are not always correct.

C-x C-f ~/.emacs <RET>

If you are lucky you will see the file you copied.  If not, copy it to this
buffer and save it.
