I've just spent 3 days trying to get Drive Image to put a clean, working version
of WIn XP onto a new Hard Disk I bought. I made an image and burned it to 5 CDs,
then put it onto the new HD - didn't work. My system completely failed to recognize
the new disk's WinXP. I then used Drive Image 2002's Copy Partition facility to copy
my OS partition onto the new drive. That partly worked - the new HD's WinXP will
boot up as far as the "Windows" screen, just before you are asked to log into your
WInXP account. Then it freezes. I am most definitely annoyed. I have SP1 installed.
I don't know whether this has anything to do with my DriveImage 2002 problem, though.
Of course, if anyone has a suggestion to solve this for me that'd be great.
