I need replace my old drive with a bigger drive.

I need replace my old 40GB drive with bigger drive.
I have a HP Pavilion a200n Desktop PC.
The system is running Windows XP home.
What is the max Hard drive size
that the HP system will support?
Do I need to update the BIOS?
Can I simply copy the 40GB to a larger disk?
What software do I need to copy the Hard drive to a larger hard drive?
Will I have problems with the Recovery partition?
Will I have problems with Windows XP
or any applicaton programs?


Thank You
