So, things are not as simple as I first thought. The thing is, the hard drive I am thinking of adding is from my old machine and has Windows XP already installed on it. Does this make much of a difference to the advice so far given?

The way I would do that is

1 Disconnect Ubuntu drive 2 Add Windows hard drive as primary drive, Boot and install drivers etc. 3 Reconnect Ubuntu drive configured as slave 4 Boot from Ubuntu install disk using repair option see if that will reconfigure grub for you

kfg

I'd add: Step 0 - Backup important things on both drives, just in case.
