Hi,
My father retired this week and I have taken over running of our accounts. Not wanting to have a 3rd desktop set up in our already overcrowded office, I was wondering if it would be possible to run his Hard Drive via one of our external caddies to access the required program? The software is question is not installed on any of my machines, but the Hard Drive is in the same condition it was when installed in his PC, operating system and all. Is it possible to run said program from the external drive?

OH and its an accounts package, not sure of the make but its not Microsoft if that helps haha.

Thanks in advance.
