Dual drives, Dual XP?

I would like to remove my hard drive from the old machine and reinstall
with/in my new machine. (To many years to just transfer). Will this work
out to be a harmonious dual boot or . . .not?
Thank you for your reponse.

The old hd is configured to only run in the old pc enviroment,it could not
boot up xp if it wanted to...

It will not be a dual boot....it will just be another drive in the machine.
You realise that there usually are vast differences between OLD and NEW
mobo.......and as such there are different drivers needed for each mobo.
You did not tell us what you had nor what you now have so we dont know if
there is a difference..........but there usualy is.
Tell us what you are really trying to do and what equip is the old and what
is the new and we or someone else will reply
