Accessing Programs from the Slave Drive...

Had my machine crash so I put my HD in my Dad's machine as a "slave". I want to be able to use my old "Favorites" folders for IE and my email setting/directories for Outlook Express storage...

Also, my dad is running Office 2000 and I had Office 97 on my HD which is now the slave. Is it even possible to run the slave version of these pieces of hardware without doing something "funny" to the system or am I flirting with disaster?
 
Similiar situation, was upgrading though, however I didn't want to wipe the old one, basically, I just copied what I needed, favorites from one to the other, exported, imported e-mail, and i think 2000 can open 97 or it should.
 
As fatr as office goes: I've run it directly from backup files without installing. I've also copied Office 2000 files over Office 97 and magically had Office 2000 on a machine. I'm talking the program files too, not docs. Office 2000 will open Office 97 docs no problem, vice versa "I dunno".
