Dear All,
I have not long done a re-install, so really don't want to be doing another
one so soon, but I've just been given a SATA drive to replace my IDE C
Drive for Xmas....
I've done a bit of research and it appears it can be done the easy way, by
Ghosting, and redumping to new drive, and using SysPrep to tell it to
rebuild the drivers, etc, and then it will use the SATA, otherwise I'm
likely to get numerous errors, BSOD's, etc...
But the link I've stumbled across (amongst others) don't really give me any
actual indication of using this tool after I've Ghosted....
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb457080.aspx
am I suppose to clone the drive, swap the drives and use SysPrep, or use
SysPrep, clone the drive, and reboot from the new drive?
I'm confused, has anybody successfully done the IDE to SATA swap without
needing a re-install, and if you have, can you please tell me the steps you
took to achieve my requirements..
Regards
Paul.
