Can Windows XP be installed on new computers?

Cheating aside, generally you can install Windows XP on any modern machine that allows you to turn off Secure Boot and select Legacy BIOS boot mode. Windows XP does not support booting from a GUID Partition Table (GPT) disk, but it can read these as a data drive.

How do I transfer Windows XP to a new computer?

Just plug your external drive into your old computer, drag your files over, and then plug it into the new computer and drag the files back. There are two caveats, though. The first is that you’ll actually need enough physical storage to make the transfer.
