What is the system.ini file?
In Windows 3.1 and older the system.ini file, as well as the Win.ini file, was the main location for system configuration information. In Windows 95, 98, and ME, most of this was moved to the registry, but it was still used for some system settings. On the NT platform, including Windows 2000, XP, Vista, Windows 7, this file is virtually obsolete. It is maintained only for compatibility with old 16 bit applications (Windows 3.1) that can not access the registry. Larry Miller, Microsoft MCSA

If you have a new Windows XP computer and an old one had Windows 95 can you take the old hard drive and install it in the new computer so you may use the programs on that drive?
While you can certainly physically install the drive (providing your computer still has an IDE controller), you are unlikely to be able to run most of the programs on the drive. Most Windows applications write data to a special database called the "Windows Registry". Since Windows 95 will not actually be running, the applications will not be able to access their registry settings, and most will fail to work. Applications that store their data in an .ini file in their program directory (mostly applications from Windows 3.1 and prior) should still work.

What is one of the main differences between Windows Vista and earlier versions of the Windows operating system?
Windows Vista has a number of significant differences from earlier Windows operating systems but probably the most significant is the graphical appearance. It's theme can be described as glassy with transparent glossy frames around windows which you can tint different colors in the Control Panel. It also comes with some new applications such as Windows DVD maker as well as a number of new games and updated applications that were in previous versions of Windows. Due to the improved appearance, it also runs slower than past versions of Windows and has some compatibility issues with certain software and device drivers. However, if you are buying a new computer and don't have alot of old software and devices you want to use with it, you probably won't have a significant problem with either of these issues.
