   Is it possible to run a harddisk drive that worked with Windows 3.1 on a computer that use Windows XP Professional?
   The HDD that worked with Windows 3.1 is full of data that I want to transfer to the computer with Windows XP Proffesional.

   Yes, if you connect the old HDD as slave, BIOS should be able to detect it and WinXP should be able to see it. This means that WinXP is running, not Win3.1. The old HDD runs like a data drive.
