If your harddisk is not recognized within a windows environment you can try "Configuration menu"", "system management", "Computermanagement". Within the second menuitem "Action"choose "Refresh" or choose "Check disks again". The names of the menitems can differ because I wrote this from the Dutch Windows Xp version.

Your old game saves will be on your old hard drive/ memory unit. If they are on a memory unit then it is a simple issue of plugging the memory unit into the new xbox and copying the old save to the new hard drive.
