I have purchased a new 120gig WD HD and the full version Windows XP Home
Edition. I plan to install XP on the new drive and migrate my old HD
contents i.e. programs, settings etc. The old HD has Win Me from Dell. What
should I do to allow me to migrate my settings and programs with the minumum
of trouble? I'm a bit of a neophyte with all of this, and want to make sure
I don't make stupid mistakes along the way. I have all of the original Dell
installed software CDs. I want the new drive to be my boot drive, and after
I've moved all of my programs and data files, I would like to reformat the
original drive, and then use it as a backup/extra drive. Any help would be
most welcome and appreciated. Thanks in advance!
