I am trying to use Seagate's disk wizard to install a new drive and
replace the boot "c" drive on my system. "C" is a SCSI drive that only
has the bootloader and a few small files. The windows directory is on a
fast SATA drive "D."
The Seagate software only lets me transfer drive D to the new IDE drive.
If I manually transfer files from C I can not boot from the IDE drive. I
tried to boot to the rescue console and fixmbr (new-ide and fixboot
(new-ide but that didn't work.
How can I make my system boot from my new IDE drive once the
old/slow/tiny SCSI is removed?
(Yes I set the BIOS to boot from IDE)
I know this is an unusual setup with SCSI C as system boot, and SATA D
as /windows /program files drive. I would like to replace the SCSI with
the new IDE as the drive that has the bootloader, and will be called C.
Thanks for any hints!
