transferring HD to new case.

#1 (**permalink**) 02-06-2007, 04:29 PM

Around the beginning of the year I'm planning to upgrade to a new
system.Since I've got two HDs in the one I have now I'm planning on moving
all items that are going to make the trip from comp. 1 to comp. 2 onto the
2nd HD then remove it and pop it into the new comp.

Ok my question is will there be any conflicts in bringing a HD that was in
an ME OS comp. to a comp. that it is running XP home ed.?

No, unless you want it to be the boot drive then absolutely.

Change the jumper settings from the drive you are transferring from
Master to Slave and on your XP drive install a boot manager like
"PowerQuest Boot Magic" and you'll have no probs booting to XP or ME.
