I did an upgrade from windows 98 to windows XP. I am currently waiting on my
new computer. How can I get the operating system from my old hard drive to
my new one?
 
we then assume that you have an XP upgrade CD.........
Do you still have Win98 CD??
Use your XP CD to start system and install when XP asks for verification
insert the 98 CD.
After the XP install run the system CD to install mobo drivers.

No 98 CD.............take the old HD and install is as the slave drive in
the new machine..be sure you set the jumpers on the HD.
Then start system with XP CD in place...push any key to boot from
CD....install XP....when it asks for verification point it to that old HD
thats now hooked up as a slave.

WHY do you ask the question since your new computer likely will be
furnished with some version of XP already installed?
