New Hard Drive

[Guest]

I have a 15 gig hard drive with XP Pro SP2 on it. I recently installed a 80
gig hard drive and would like to copy my 15 gig to the 80 gig and use only
the 80 gig drive.Is there anything special that I have to do? I will be
using a program called Data Lifeguard to do it.

I'd be surprised if it works. Did the makers of Data Lifeguard say that it
would? The usual procedure is to put the new HD in while it is still blank
and then use your WinXP installation disk to boot up, format the new HD,
install WinXP. Then install all your programs from their respective
installation CDs. Then install your old HD as a slave drive and copy your
personal files over to the new drive.

Hi,

Go to your hard drive makers site and download their program that
transfers your old info to your new disk.
