Hi. I am not that great at technical stuff so I decided to come here for help. My computer is running Windows XP Home SP2 and it currently has a 30gb hard drive. My cousin recently gave me a 160gb External Hard Drive and I wanted to know if I could change it so that my system could run on that instead is that possible.

Your system can use both

Simply plug in your external hard drive and Plug and Play should automatically recognize it.

Can I run programs off of my external hard drive and is it possible to switch it out were the 160 becomes the primary drive becuase I am fine with reinstalling windows if that what it involves.

You can't run Windows off an external drive, sorry
