[ale] what if ....

I 
belive if you can go into safe mode on W2K and delete all the hardware you do 
nto have it should be fine.?? I think that it may be fine anyway.?? Our 
IT guys did this when people got new machines and they did not want to reload 
all the software.

  ....Hello All,???? I started using Linux 
  about 6 months ago so bear with my simple questions. ?? I recently got a 
  new computer /*Woo Hoo*/ and loaded Red Hat 7.2. ??I want to take the 
  drive from the old computer and add it to the new. ??It is dual booted 
  with SuSE 7.1 and Win2k. ??My question is... When I add the drive will it 
  be possible to boot into Win2k or will it freak out because the hardware is 
  different? ??I want to keep the dual boot setup for the non-Linux types in 
  the house and I seem to have misplaced the Win2k install disk. 
  ??Thanks for the hepJeff Rose
