If you version of Mass Effect 2 doesn't launch with a splash screen, then you have to locate the config utility manually. Locate the folder where Mass Effect is installed. Then go to Binaries and open 'MassEffect2Config'. There's a button on the left about save games. After clicking it, a button appears called 'copy Mass Effect 1 saves' that allows you to browse to the folder containing your save files. The folder is usually Documents - BioWare - Mass Effect - Save. Once you're there, simply click OK. There's no fancy message or anything, but it should be fine now.
Fred's answer is invaluable! I have both boxed and new Origin Digital files on my system. I found the ME1 game folder, with old characters and it took more serching to find my most recent character. The newer characters are saved per level and date, (not name). I found ME2 using the regular windows file search. Clicking on it goes into game launch- BUT, right click for submenu, Config is in the drop down list. It opens the ME2 Conf utility, with the infamous Import Mass Effect One games. Then as Fred says, just say OK.
