moving to new boot hard drive

R

Ron

I am trying to move to a new hard drive and need some
help. I installed a new 120 GB drive, partitioned it in
three partitions like my old drive and then using Drive
Image I copied each partition to the new partitions.
Following the instructions for Drive Image, I then
replaced the old drive with the new drive set as master.
When I tried to reboot, I am requested to insert the Win
XP disk. I do not know what to do from here. I do not
want to do a clean reintall. Any help would be
appreciated.

Ron, is there a step that you select which partition to make active? The
boot partition has to be active.
