Hello everyone my name is Michael Cooper & I have been in the computer industry for over 12 years. For the past 5 years I have been making instructional videos showing the average computer user how to build their own computer.
If I buy a PC with no operating system how do I get my existing XP onto my new hardrive in the new computer?

With your XP CDs. Although, if you're buying a new computer you should seriously consider upgrading to Windows 7.

2 GB Ram is good for 250GB Hard Drive.

a 250GB drive will be woefully small by today's standards.

Is a 2GB hard drive good

A 2GB hard drive is comically undersized by today's standards. You will probably want at LEAST a 500GB drive but a 1TB drive should be what you're looking at when building a new machine.
