I wasn't sure where to post tis, so ill just post it here.
I have a very old pc, running windows 95.
I am going to build a new pc, using my old dell XPS R350 as a base.
When i have finished building it, i want to install the old hdd into the new pc. Can i just install a fire it up? I thought maybe it wouldn't be possible because windows would be configured to all the old hardware, is this true?
If it is, is there a way around it?
I Can't reinstall evrything as some software is very complex to install and configure (some invoicing software) and i basically cant do it, and no one else can. Therefore, i either find a way to just use the hdd as is, or i don't upgrade. I really ned to upgrade as this p1 166 is too slow.
I really hope some one can help.
