How do I link old HD info to XP Mode?
I don't know if this has been covered before or not. I am searching the posted questions and answers. Any directions to web pages that show how to set up, use, and link to other sources would be helpful.
Background:
Last computer was using XP. the motherboard and the power supply both crashed. The main hard drive(C:\ drive) was fine. Got a new computer with Windows 7 Professional in it and down loaded both "Windows 7 XP Mode" and the "Virtual PC". got all of them up and running.
The XP hard drive was placed into the new computer and is now listed as the E:\ drive. The information can be read on the Windows seven machine.
I have used virtual machines at the local college, but have never had to try and set up one to use.
The Problem:
When the old computer died I was using Outlook Express for my e-mails. The e-mail list and my stored e-mails and my list of favorite websites are still on the E:\ drive and I have no way to retrieve any of this.
Question: ??
The main question I have is there some way that I can access or link the E:\ drive to the "Windows 7 XP Mode" virtual machine and retrieve my e-mail addresses. That is the primary item that I need. Any help with the secondary items listed above would also be nice, but aren't of major importance at this time. The e-mail address book is.
Any help along this line would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.
