I have another question for the forum, this time about being a hard drive question.

My question is I've checked with Gateway and my computer will hold two hard drives. My roommate has a computer, which is a little older than mine, but his video graphics card and everything is a lot older than mine is. I wanted to take the hard drive out of his computer and put it into my computer.

Both of the computers run Windows ME. Mine has a newer video graphics card and everything so I want to use mine to play games and such like the Sims 2. Only thing I'm afraid of is his computer is the one that has problems with firefox and such....if I put it into my computer would it have the same problem?

Next question is how do I go about changing the hard drive from his to mine without messing anything up. I would want his as the main hard drive because his has more space than mine does. I think mine only has 9GB of space, and the roommates has 19GB.
