so i want to try installing old hard drive into new PC as a 2ed hard drive
(well its my moms pc that she doesn't want and is still fine , got it cleaned up and running fine from a PC Pro.)
looked up a few videos on Youtube and it seams pretty simple........

old PC had windows XP Professional 32-bit and if the new one has the same can i just install the old one and turn on the PC and everything will run fine??? dont have to mess with anything else???

or do i have to go in to DOS (or whatever its called) and do a bunch of * to make it work????

any advice would be greatly appreciated
