Hi,
I have the following problem: I am running Windows XP SP2 on my laptop and
my hard disk is starting to die.
Since it still kind of works, I bought a new one (Same size, not exactly the
same model) and did a physical copy
on another system I have (I don't want to reinstall all my applications)
using a small application that I wrote a couple
of years ago and that I used successfully several times with Windows 2000
for the exact same purpose (Replacing
dying hard drives without resintalling everything).
Now the problem is that when I boot with the new hard drive, I cannot login
: login starts and then automatically logs off.
I assume that it has something to do with product activation. Is there any
Microsoft approved way of doing what I am
trying to do?
TIA,
Pierre
