I want to put in a larger HD, can I reinstall windows XP Home without too
much hassle?
Thanks

Dave,
You could also use a program like Ghost to copy the data from your
original hard drive to the new one and then use the new one to boot
from. In that way you do not have to reinstall XP and all the drivers
will be OK.

Is that Norton Ghost?
That sounds like the easiest way to do this.. Thanks

Hi David,

Your new HD may come with software to move your files to the new drive. If
not, they most likely have software you can download to make the transition.

LOL, JAX
