If you take a look at the options tab in the "Transfor Data Task Properties" you should find an option called "Enable identity insert" in the SQL Server section at the bottom of the dialog box. Also, depending on how much data you have, it is recommended to change the "Insert batch size" to something like 10,000 so that your entire transaction (table) doesn't have to commit at one time...
Good Luck!
