Image a partition on to another HD but it wont boot. I get an error message
stating that the Page Swap File size is to small. It also says how to
change the Page File Space but I can't get pass the error message. I have a
Bart Utility Boot CD that will let me boot from the CD. I think I can
modify the Registry to make the changes if someone can tell me what to
change.

Thanks in advance.
 
That is a well known issue with disk cloning, if you left the source
drive connected and rebooted the boot volume drive letter has changed on
the cloned drive.

I used Acronis Disk Director to split the HD into 3-partitions (total) so
that it matched the HD that the partition came from. I re-imaged the
partition with Acronis TrueImage then copied it to the second harddrive.
Took the old drive off. Now with the new drive on (by itself), I booted
okay.

The systems sees the same 3-partitions as the original drive (even though
the 2-partitions I created were 2GB each). After this booted okay (and I
was happy to see that), I used Acronis Disk Director to remove the
2-partitions and resized the C-Drive to max size.

This seems to have done the trick. A tricky way to solve the issue, I will
admit. I did read the articles and understand the issue of the Drive
letters changing.
