There shouldnt be many problems. But you will need an adaptor from 44 to 40 pin unless you are using a full size 3.5" HD in your A1200. Does your A1200 have an accelerator, or any 3rd party clockport add-ons? It should be pretty straight forward.

You can add newer libs, but if you have a standard workbench install, the 040 libs should be there already. What processor board do you have installed in the 4000?

When I got my A4000, I had an A1200 also. I got a HD for the A4000, did a clean workbench install and then copied my games over. Do you get any error messages?
