Of course, and it won't work very well in most cases and I don't recommend it. You should always reformat unless the other computer is IDENTICAL. If you don't format, you're going to have thousands of "orphan derelict" vxd, dll, etc. files that can cause problems, not to mention a corrupted registry since it's going to have all the old data still in it. Reformatting is actually faster than trying to delete every listing in the device manager one by one, uninstalling **ALL** of the drivers, deleting the registry, deleting the Windows folder, etc., etc., and after all that you're still probably going to have some problems. -Clint
