pest · **Copying Harddrives -** 09-04-2002, 12:18 PM

Can I take the harddrive out of my current box (windows 98) and attach it as a slave to a new machine (most likey going with windows2000, maybe xp) and copy its contents (data files) on to the new harddrive? It would be really cool if I could, but not necessary. I can always burn the important files or at least try to get file sharing working on my router again *grumbles at the thought*.

That brings up another question... anyone know anythng about file sharing between two pcs on a router. Last time I enabled it, I had all kinds of problems with both pcs. Any ideas?
