Have old XP C: & want to mount in new Win7 just to retrieve files. OK?
Trying to help my brother on this one.
His old XP PC crashed before he could setup Easy Transfer. He has since bought a new Win7 PC & needs to access data from his old C:. So, I'm wondering if we mount his old XP's C: as an extra HDD, will his new Win7 PC boot properly or will it be confussed which drive to boot from.
My gut feeling is it will boot to Win7 but it never hurts to look before leaping! Once we can read the files (photos, music, etc) we'll move them to his new C: & remove the old one.
Any suggestions?
