George, thanks. Does this mean I need to install the XP first to be able to migrate the settings from my old 2k setup?

It's fairly intuitive when you start it from XP.

I have a new drive to install to so I can move back to the old OS if anything goes wrong with it all. I believe there is a method of taking the windows settings from the old installation so it can be transferred to the new XP installation. Can someone point me to a site that describes the procedure and what can be achieved with this method please?
