I had a huge amount of trouble trying to clone my wife's old 60GB hard drive
to the new 100GB drive (for her Dell D400 via Norton Ghost). I gave up after
over a week and took it down our local PC shop.
They also had a lot of trouble, apparently! They had to use Partition Magic
8 and do the clone one partition at a time, and then 're-build' the
partitions onto the new drive.
Everything seemed okay but I suddenly noticed that the partitions have
different letters - 'C' is still Widows but 'D' (data), 'E' (progs.), etc.
are switched around. This is causing a couple of complicated problems...
Can I just change the drive letters back to what they used to be? (With PM7
or Disk Management in Admin. Tools.) Or will this cause other problems?
The least stressful way of dealing with this is much preferred!
Cheers,
Chris
