I need to use a hard drive with windows XP on from an old laptop in a newer laptop. The newer laptop does not recognize the hard drive from the old laptop. How can I get the laptop to recognize the old laptops hard drive?

The hard drive from the newer laptop does not work properly so I want to use the hard drive from an old laptop that already has windows XP installed on it (drivers will not be a problem).

The hard drive does work and should work in the old laptop.

Is it possible to switch my laptop computer to a new laptop computer case and screen?

I have a new laptop with a broken screen, and I have an old laptop that is terribly slow but the screen works. Is it possible to take my new laptop and put all of the hardware into the old laptop so I can use that screen? I can’t return my laptop and I don’t want to use an external monitor. Thanks.

I’ve recently recieved a new laptop from work. I work from home sometimes and need to connect to the internet. My laptop shows that I’m connected to the internet, however I can’t get any pages to download. I’ve disabled the firewalls on the computers, but to no avail. My old laptop, I just plugged in wireless card and it connected fine. With the new laptop, It won’t. What am i missing? Thanks!
