Can I do this with a disc partition?

Hey guys,

you've helped me with technical problems in the past so I thought I might run this past you before dashing out and buying the wrong stuff.

I have an XP PC which, since it's quite old, has become very slow. I don't have the original discs with me, so a reformat and reinstall is out of the question.

The main thing I use the PC for is MYOB which is a version from waaaay before all the new mega expensive annual subscription options they have today. So I'm keen to stick with it as it does what I want perfectly.

So that's why I have to stick with XP, one of the limitations of which is a max of 4GB of ram.

I was wondering - if I were to get a new faster PC, could I easily create a partition on which to put my XP o/s along with the stuff I have on this PC?

Is that something that's fairly easily do-able?

Appreciate any tips or thoughts guys
