My C: drive (WD 80 Gig SATA) is getting crowded so I bought a new Seagate
SATA 500. I partitioned it into two partitions, the smaller 160 Gig to be
my new system drive. I have cloned the old drive to the new drive first
using Ghost 9 then XXCLONE both of which resulted in the hal.dll error after
I shut down, pulled the data cable from the old drive and rebooted. Have
also tried it using Ghost full backup. Same result. Talking to computer
savvy friends confirm that this is common, but no one has come up with a fix
yet.

Help! Please!
 
The rdisk value in the boot.ini file is probably wrong. Try connecting
the new drive in the same SATA port as the old drive.
