Title: Win 98 to Win XP Pro advice
Post by: rredmax on September 14, 2006, 05:07:30 PM

Hi,
I have a computer that I'd like to upgrade with all new hardware, but keep the current hard drive as a slave. The computer currently has Win 98 (non-SE). If I build a new computer with new hardware, and a new HD, install WinXP, then slave the Win98 HD....will it recognize the slave HD and all the files? I am assuming not all the programs would run correctly too.

Any input would be appreciated.
Thanks,
rredd
