Current System: ASUS H97-Plus / Intel I5 - 4690K
I have various HDD with different Windows OSes. (e.g. Win95, Win98Se, WinXP)
I have the original Windows disks and authorization codes.
I need to boot from these older HDD in order to use several old programs.
For whatever reason the older programs will not execute under Window7-Pro (my current OS)
with OR without compatability mode.
=========================
Will connecting one of the HDD to the "current" system (will be using an IDE to SATA interface), and then installing (overwriting) the old OS onto the old HDD allow it to function on the current system?
If NOT, an explanation of why NOT would be appreciated.
Also any alternatives -- if any -- I have?
