Windows Forum / Windows XP / Security and Administration / April 2005Hard drive upgrade problems.
I recently upgraded from a 20gig hard drive to an 80gig. Everything seemed to copy ok until I tried using System Restore to create a restore point on the new hard drive. It was then that I started getting errors saying that various .dll files were now corrupt. I could not save system settings, install new drivers, or setup new programs because when I would resart the system, none of my settings were being saved. I guess my question is, "What do I need to do to Windows Xp so that I can copy it from one drive to another?" Should I just uninstall Service Pack2? What you need is the best program you can find. Acronis True Image is one of,... if not the best.

Do it free with this: clone maxx : http://www.pcinspector.de/clone-maxx/uk/welcome.htm Should that not work then your new drive should come with software (check their site if you didn't get a disk) to clone or "image" the drive to another drive.
