You can try it. You may have to do a repair install on XP but it might work. Cant you make a backup on like a flash drive, then wipe the drives for a clean install?

You should be able to swap the drives if they both have the same interface (SATA-IDE). I suppose that all you want to do is switch all of your information and your operating system, correct, or just the operating system?
