My desktop crashed, I need to use a graphics program that won’t install in Vista which is what I have on my laptop. I have the program CD but I can’t find my XP upgrade CD. My laptop’s processor won’t support VirtualPC. I wanted to boot directly to the old HD by USB but everything I’ve read mentions using the XP CD at some point. Is there a way to copy the contents of the old HD to a virtual (or actual) partition on my laptop and boot to that partition when I want to use my graphics program? I’ve searched and read until my head is spinning, can sombody help?
