Well I finally got it to work - thank you for all your help; I went into the Hardware Wizard and then I was having a notice come up that a hardware needed to be installed by the XP - but it was a different name than the USB driver - it was some kind of adapter so I wasn't sure and so I just installed it and then everything came up on My Computer in the drive for the Portable Hard Drive. I was then able to transfer everything over to the new computer.
This is one happy camper!! Now that I have CD RW I will have to learn how to use it and put these things on the CD for safe keeping. Happy New Year to you and everyone else on the list!
