I recently bought a new computer. All my songs, movies, and games are in my old computer. How can I transfer all this to my new computer?

take the hard drive out of the old computer and put it into the new one.

OK. So does it mean that I will have a 160GB hard drive instead of a 120GB because of the 40GB hard drive I'm adding?

And if my 40GB hard drive has a virus, will the virus stay on the new computer or does a virus come on the computer itself and not the hard drive?

you will have a 120gb c drive and then a 40gb e or f drive. then just copy your music and important files. then you can format the old drive. the virus should not affect your new computer unless you transfer the files that contain the virus to the other hard drive.
