    Transferring old Hard Drive to New Computer?

    I just bought a new computer, and was wondering if I could simply transfer my old hard drive to the new PC. FYI, my old computer was a Dell Dimension 8300, Windows XP, with an 80GB HD. My new computer is a custom Phenom II X3 720 Black Edition, Vista Home Premium 64, with a 1TB HD. Basically:

    (1) If I physically remove the old Dell HD and put it in the new computer, will I be able to access my files?

    (2) Will I be able to boot from the Windows XP operating system installed on the old HD? (And not compromise my ability to alternatively boot from Vista 64 on the new HD)?

    (3) Can I copy the contents of the old HD to an external HD and achieve the result in #2?

    Any advice would be appreciated!
