One additional note about disk size. No matter what size your C: drive is, Windows needs about 15% of it to be unused. You might think a gig or two is plenty of room, but this is Windows we're talking about...

So if your old drive is getting full, do a Start->Programs->Accessories->System Tools->Disk Cleanup and then Disk Defragmenter (in the same menu folder).

But here's another trick you can try first to clean up a crowded drive: right click on the drive letter or a floder and bring up Search. Enter *.* for the name of the files to search for, then click on the Search Options link, select Size, and enter a size of at least 1000kb (one meg). You'll probably find a bunch of old and very big files you don't need and can delete to free up a bunch of space.
