C drive and install it into the new computer. So I won't have to reinstall my programs or lose my saved email!
Well that IMHO is realy realy REALY not a good idea...
Install a new HD with a new version of XP etc.. and give the system a fresh start.
installing a old HD into a new system is asking for troubles.
Windows DONT like it and wont work 100% ..
You got to do what you got to do but $5000 on a new system and then istalling the old C:
Is like getting a ferrari but put your old 1.2L motor in it.
Installing the C: as a extra drive and transfer runtimes etc etc to the new poser etc etc is a better way to work
Even better is taking the time to install ALL new ... cleaning up half working programs later will take more of your time ...
But the new PC looks SWEET ! and fast ..
