I have a Hard Drive that contains a working Windows XP SP2 system. I have
taken this hard drive and installed it on a new motherboard. I was hoping
that I could boot Windows XP in safe mode and then load the new motherboard
drivers and life would be great. Unfortunately, XP throws up a blue screen
when I try to run in safe mode on the new motherboard. So, I tried to do a
repair with my original XP installation CD, but because I have SP2 on the
box, the installation process cannot find some files on the original XP
install CD when it tries to do the repair.
Basically, is there some way that I can get this hard drive onto my new
motherboard in the least painless way possible without loosing all of my
settings?
