64/32bit HD compatabilities?

[Arrows2100]

Is it possible to take the hard-drive from my 32bit computer running XP Pro (FAT32 filing system) and plug it into a 64bit computer as a slave to the primary hard drive running Windows64 (NTFS filing system).

If so would it require a simple 'repair install' to let Windows know where the program is?

You see, im considering buying a high-spec 64bit machine for gaming but reinstalling every application that I use would take forever, and burning all the downloads to CD/DVD for transfer would take too long...

Although, is Windows 64 able to connect in ethernet with XP Pro.. Im assuming it will be designed to to keep it's customers

Cheers,
Arrows

Yeah XP 64 connects with XP Home / Pro ect.

You will have to reinstall most of the programs if you switch to x64. Infact if you buy a new computer, you have to reinstall most of the programs regardless of what you do. Most programs put files in the windows folders...
