This is not a game question but it's not near as off topic as what some
people are talking about around here these days. I need some advice
from you smart computer guys (or gals) around here. I just bought a new
computer (a Dell). It's so quiet, fast, and smooth and I love it. My
old computer has some software on it that I really need but I just
learned I am not going to have access to it to put it on my new one. I
have figured out I can't copy the software from the old one to the new
one so I decided I might try to put the old hard drive in the new
computer and have it as extra storage so that I'll be able to use the
program on my new computer. My old computer is really loud. I think
the noise was the fans but I'm not positive it was all from the fans. I
just want to know if the old hard drive in the new computer would be
likely to cause problems. Could it make it louder or not run as smooth?
I know people do things like this but I have no idea what effect it
might have on my new computer and I don't want to mess it up. Any
advice or suggestions would be great!! Thanks.
