I am trying to replace a failing disk on a Windows dual boot system and after
copying all of the files and attempting to boot to the new drive I receive a
disk configuration error message and Windows 2000 will not boot.
Details:
Computer Dell Dimension 4100
Disk 0 - Master - drive C: contains the Windows Me operating system and
assoicated files. This disk is not being replaced.
Disk 1 - Slave - drive D: containes the Windows 2000 operating system and
associated files. Old drive is 45GB replacement drive is 80GB. I've used
the software supplied with the drive in Windows 2000 to create a new
replacement boot drive. I did this by having both the old and new drives in
the system and booting to Windows 2000. When I remove the old drive and
substitute the new drive in its place, tI receive the boot selection screen
and select Windows 2000 - then after a pause I get the disk configuration
error message. Going back to the old disk restores operation of Windows 2000.
