 DC> Anyhow, it appears that you have 2 systems up and running.  Keep 
 DC> them that way!  I trust you have 2 monitors, too.  

 PC> Yes 2 systems.  I know I will have to let the old cpu with win95
 PC> die and become parts. 

Don't do that!  Keep it viable.  

 PC> So I thought I would slide everything into
 PC> the new system.

Other than the programs/data you want, most won't work in your 
new system.  

 
 DC> Is your XP system a desktop or laptop?  
 PC> Desktop.  made by MEDION.

Then, you could temporarily move over the WIN95 drive into 
the new system...  

 
 DC> Does your XP have a floppy drive?  
 PC> Yes.

As Bwave isn't that large, you should be able to use floppies 
for transfer instead.  

 
 DC> Can you personally add a hard drive or floppy drive to a computer?  

 PC> Yes...I have added modems and video cards to CPUS.

See above.  The 1.44 should be ok unless you have collected a 
lot of files.  

 DC> Are you comfortable with DOS command line Commands?  

 PC> Yeah...I have had to experiment with doorways to take dialup
 PC> users via doors menu to direct connect with my radio transmitter
 PC> for packet.  It was fun doing that.

I do most of my messing with DOS!  


 DC> How about WIN copy commands?  

 PC> I have copied some files with Windows.  I like it better that
 PC> way then the DOS way. Lost a few with dos.. :)  

Always use the copy command and then delete after confirmation!  

 PC> Okay..I will try that method now....thanks Dan

 PC> will get back to you....

BTW, if you opt on the HD swap, do remember to change the Master/Slave 
jumpers.  And, do not change the storage type on the drive!   If 
you do, you may not be able to access it in the WIN95 system.
