Hi! You can try connecting the Windows 7 HDD to your older Windows XP PC, even though it's not optimized for Windows 7. To make it work, you might need to install a bootable Windows 7 USB drive on the new PC and use it as the operating system. Alternatively, you could use a recovery media like Windows Media Creation Tool to restore Windows 7 from the old installation media. Let me know if you need more details!
