    I am planning to install a new harddrive, much faster, etc. Is it okay to install the OEM OS on this new drive as long as I take it off the old drive? Other than that, the machine is the same.

    You shouldn't have a problem doing that but you may have to call MS (Toll Free I believe) to reactivate XP.
