Installing a second hard drive

helios19 · 11-25-2008, 03:02 AM

I have a Pentium 4 with a 40GB hard drive which has windows XP SP3. I want to remove a 20GB hard drive from another computer i have which has Windows 98 on it, and install it on my Pentium 4. (However i want to fully format the 20GB hard drive, in otherwards i only want Windows XP alone) Is this possible?

Thanks in advance!

Easy job. Just move it to your computer as a slave and then you can format it through Windows. Let us know if you need help.
