Adopt a hard drive into the family?
Trying to be PC (pun intended).
I have an old and dying desktop machine, holds one EIDE hard drive which has various goodies on it that I would still like to keep.
The drive also holds a full, licensed and verified copy of Windows XP Pro.
I have a new desktop - Vista Ultimate. 64 bit. This machine currently holds two (but can hold four) SATA drives and has a space and connection for an EIDE drive.
Can I import the drive only from the old PC and have the new one adopt it as a third data drive (either with or without access to the XP Pro operating system)?
Sigh. I hate compyooters when they don't work the way I want them to.
Do you even understand my question? I'm not sure I do - and I wrote it.
