Getting data off win95 to XP

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

Hi all and thanks for taking the time to read this,

Friends of mine have finally bought a new pc with xp home installed. Their old machine has windows95 installed. All their files are backed up onto floppy disks but there is no floppy drive in the new pc. They have no network card, no USB ports and no CD burner in their 95 machine.

If their old drive was to be installed as a slave in the XP machine, temporarily, would XP be able to see the files on it?

Thanks
