I have purchased a new system loaded with XP and a 160 gig hard drive.
I'm going to move the XP hard drive (80gig) from my old system to the
new one. Should I make the new one the slave or the old one? The old
one already has other programs installed. I could move all of "My
Documents" files to the new drive and use the old one to run my
programs. One more thing.... I did this one other time but when I made
the old drive the slave, XP deleated everything in "My Documents"
because you can not have "My Documents" on two drives at the same time.
Has this been fixed? Does it matter which XP I use, the one from the
new drive or the one I had from the old drive? Thanks!
 
Add the drive as the slave.

As long as the drive isn't active it won't recognise the My Documents
folder.
