Hey all!

Ok, My partner has a computer that has been officially put to rest due to far to many issues and errors with it. We didnt get a chance to pull any of the information off from the Hard Drive, and I want to put this inot my PC whilst retaining all the information on both my drive and hers.

Is this possible? If so, what do I need to do?

Just incase people need to know, my PC is currently runnning on the following

Windows Xp,
Maxtor 6Y080LO hard drive
NVIDIA GeForce TI 4200 Graphics
AMD athalon (XP) 2600+

And the drive I want to put in is a

Seagate Barracuda ATA IV

Thanks all

Dan
