Old harddrive in new computer?

Alright, so, I've got the itch to try vista. However, I don't want to install it on my main harddrive. So hey, I'll just throw it on the old 40gig I have, I only want it for a few DX10 games and some other things atm.
So, I throw the drive in my computer, hook it all up. Boot up, the drive isn't in my computer. So I check device manager, its there and "working properly". Alright, lets fix this. Try to upgrade to vista. "No, no, abloo bloo bloo, we wont let you". Bah. Ok, reinstall XP on it. "Abloo bloo bloo, can't repair, but you can format if you want".
The harddrive is fine, if old. Worked perfectly last time I tried it(in my old computer, to be fair). Basically, I either want to upgrade the hard drive to vista, or transfer the files onto my new harddrive(got plenty of space), and then format and install vista.
Help?
