Alright, I can't seem to find a good solution to this problem (and I can't quite get my Google search terms right either). I've taken a HD from my old XP computer and plugged it into my computer via the SATA. Online, I've found that many people had to format their HD to get it to work, but I kind of need the data that's on it.
Here's what I hope to accomplish:
Be able to set it up with a virtual machine to simply run my old XP box in a virtual machine.
Here is what I'll settle with:
Be able to access the data from my default OS and be able to use it as a second HD.
Does anybody know the best way to go about this? I would prefer the first option, but the second would be fine as a last case scenario.
