Help - Partition Issues and Norton Ghost

[joel]

Hi Guys, Just bought a new 160Gb HDD and want to use it
as primary (other is 40Gb).

Used Norton Ghost to clone the disk and everything seems
ok except the newly created partitions won't load
windows - "cannot accurately check the license for this
computer." error code 0x80090006. I have heard it is
something to do with the new partitions being of diff
size to the old one and it affecting the MBR - Can anyone
suggest a fix?? I'm running XP Prof Ed.

Cheers

Your fix is probably a telephone call to Microsoft.

You may need to perform an in-place "repair" of XP, using the XP CDROM.

Try the following link:

Also, try a Google search on the error code, as that often sh0ows something
useful.
