transfer system boot disk to backup server

[Ken Kucel]

I transferred a Windows 2000 server system boot disk
(hard drive) to a backup server. The new backup server
has a different IDE controller. I can't get the old
drive to boot in the new server. The error message I get
is: inaccessible boot device.

How do I install new drivers or in general work around
this problem?

Thanks,

-Ken
