Built new system with 80gig HD, Partitioned at 25gigs,
and 50gigs NTFS. Took old hard drive from previous
computer with 98 on it. Installed as the master drive,
loaded XP upgrade successfully, then cloned old drive to
new one via Norton Ghost. Removed old drive, moved new
one to Master and tried to boot the new hard drive but
failed to boot from it. Listed partition error, and I
tried to do a recovery from XP CD. Ended up reloading
from MS XP CD, which left everything in files and no
programs or Icons loaded at all. Don't know if this is an
error on my part duplicating the hard drive, or if
Windows XP is acting based on it's assumption that I was
loading on a different computer. Any suggestions other
than sitting on hold on the phone with MS for an hour?
