this won't work, you have all the drivers for the old hardware on that hhd+os, you'd be better off buying a cheap external enclosure, buy a new laptop (which should come with an already ready to run OS, and lots of other unnecessary crappy applications), save the data on it, format the ext hd and make another backup copy of your data on that to keep it safe.
= yay.
glad you got the pins!
