Here's the situation:
I was asked by my boss to "remove a program from one computer and put it on another computer."
The 'one computer' is a HP 1.2GHz Windows 2000 Business.
The 'another computer' is a Dell Celeron 2 2.4 GHz Windows XP Home (SP2).
No installation disks. Expected me to basically pull the program onto a thumb drive and dump it into the other computer. And there is proprietary hardware that goes with the program. (USB)
I informed him that what he was asking for isn't possible. You can't transfer programs between 2 different OSs. Find the installation disks.
Am I in the right? Or am I blowing smoke out of my ass?
