Do you wish to have one (New Computer), with both OS on it (Duel Operating Systems) with Windows XP and Windows VISTA? This can be so arranged to boot up to the OS that you desire, and also being able to open files etc. on the the other OS. You would use the Hard Drive from old Computer and the Hard Drive that in the new Computer. If this is what you wish to do, I can help.
