The old XP Pro sp3 system contained critical/expensive S/W that I need to use.

One of the S/W packages uses a USB HASP copy protection device that appears to work properly on the new 8.1 Pro system. Also, can I simply install the surviving XP Pro sp3 SATA hard drive (that is compatible with the new 8.1 Pro Client Hyper-V system) and use it via Hyper-V, rather than using Windows XP Pro sp3 Restore?
