So why not use it?
Hi, everyone.
I have an older Dell 9150 with 4 gigs of ram and running XP home and my questions are, This is a 32 bit chip set, right? I mean, it would be of no value for me to install the 64 bit version, am I right?
My next question is, I have installed a new 620 gig hard drive that is completely empty in a second bay.
So can I install the new OS on that drive and then just move my files and whatever I'am keeping to that new drive and then clean the original hard drive and use it for back up?
Is it that simple or am I missing some steps.
Will I have to look up and install new drivers for all my peripherals, or will they just work?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You all in advance for taking the time to read this and for coming up with some suggestions.
