I would like to be able to pull out my old hard drive and install it into my pc. Not sure how I would be able to do that. Swaping from P3 to P4.

Are you planning on just yanking the HD out and plugging it in as the main drive in your new computer, or are you planning on using it as a second HD?
If you want to use it as your main, XP will freak out on you. XP is like ....old people, they DO NOT LIKE CHANGE. Changing from P3 to P4 is a major change.
If you just want to use it as a second HD, you can just throw it in and make sure you set it as a slave drive, or just plug it in with your CDROM (CD drives are NORMALLY on a seperate channel than the HD). You can delete and format the drive, or you can do this via Windows, whichever you prefer.
