Old PC dead (one partition) Ghosted to New PC (2 or more partition)

Hello all,

 

My 2001 Dell Dimension 8200 (XP Home) as died this week. Fried memory and possibly HD.

I have made a backup\recovery point the week before with Ghost 10. 

 

I am buying a used 2005 Dell E520 that contain a version of XP (media Centre). That PC has a HD that is partitioned (factory by Dell). The HD has been wiped clean (only 1st partition containing the OS is OK).

 

Who do I go about restoring my old PC on the new one without erasing the Newer XP that is on the partition?

 

Do I run the risk of creating another OS on the empty partition?

 

I would like to keep the newr XP version but have all the software and file that I used to have (not mentionning my 100's of e-mail).

 

Thanks a lot
