From ME to XP now how to xfer pgms & data

I installed XP on a new hard drive (Pri Mast) and have my old ME system on my old drive (Sec Mast). (Or I will have as soon as I make the change) Since I installed XP on the new drive, I have a new copy of Outlook Express and Internet Explorer on the XP system (with my current OE & IE on the ME system). How do I get my old address book, folders, favorites, links, etc. from the ME system to the new XP system? Have not tried it yet - hope there is an easy way. Also, will I have to reload specific device drives on the XP system or will XP pick these up from the ME drive? If I load drivers onto XP there will be two copies (ME & XP). And, will I be able to move my applications and data from the ME drive to the XP drive or do I have to start all over on the XP system. I would like to end up with OS, Pgms and most data on the new XP drive and use the old one for backup and temporary storage. I am currently running on the ME system (Hard Drive is Pri Mast.) with the new XP drive disconnected. Thanks.
