After lightning strike, built new machine, then booted old C:\ drive from
damaged computer. Now I'm repairing the damaged machine. I have a disk image
I would like to restore to this repaired machine. Since I am running this
WinXP OS on the new, can I purchase a new WinXP disk and use the repair
function to enable this old disk for the repaired computer?
Thank you
John
PS: After reading the thread in this most excellent newsgroup, (If the
motherboard is changed), I think I have my answer. It will be no big deal if
it doesn't work, need to install OS anyhow, just would be nice ,I have lots
of favorite things on the old disk. Heh, one of the things is SPGT racing
won't run worth a hoot on xp sp2. This old image probably will survive the
sp2 thingy and won't be installed so I can race away.
