I have a Dell Dimension 2400 computer that I want to install a new larger master hard drive. The computer currently has a 30GB hard drive. I would like to remove the 30GB hard drive, reformat, and use as a slave on an older computer.
Will I be able to reinstall the XP operating system that came with my Dell on the new hard drive? I think I recall reading where the operating system CD's that come with Dells are specific for those systems (I couldn't use the Dell CD to install XP onto a homebuilt computer for instance), and I just want to confirm that installing a new larger hard drive as master won't be an issue in installing the version of XP that I have.
Thanks,
Raymond
