Ok so I formatted a bigger drive (wiped it clean) and I want to take the bigger drive an put all of Peaches stuff on it/transfer.

I do have a transfer cable but not sure if that would do everything.

Her old drive was 40gig, and I have a 80gig to replace that, and then use her 40gig as a extra storage.

Some may ask-why not leave it, and just add the 80gig as extra storage?

Well it is full, and will not take any updates (per-say).

So what say ye as to moving the info?

Thanks,
Jim

P.S. I do have a XP OS on a disc.

Ya, just put the CD in

[JeepNWilly]

Gonna send you a PM in a bit.

Ok, got it. Going to order a power supply first then get this going. I'll post when I have it together, so keep the link alive

When you unzip the file you will see a folder. Go in the folder and look for a file called BurnISO.exe
Run it.
When the Window Pops up check to make sure the ISO file is already selected if not browse for it by clicking the button with the ... on it.
Look for the ISO file called Active-BootDisk.iso
Put a blank CD and click Burn ISO button.

Once that is done see if you can get it to boot up using that CD on Peaches PC. Look thru all the tools available once booted. It will look kinda like a Windows environment.


Tommorrow will be step 2 (How to copy all contents from 1 HD to the other using the Boot CD.)

Power Supply for who? Peaches PC?

[Rollbar]

Yes her power supply took a dump when they were playing w/the power.

[JeepNWilly]

Ah ok,

Either way while the comes in the mail try booting from it on any other PC you may have so you can get familiar with the tool.
It is a very good CD lots of good tools.

I actually use it to make a backup of a PC after I do a fresh install that way I never have to install Windows again. If it takes a dump I just simply restore the HD image I created using that boot cd

OK I'll look at it.

I still have to get my LapTop fixed as well. Windows Installer isn't working, can't update/install a few things. I did borrow the HEX KEY from my other PC and it worked for a little bit then reverted back. HUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Thanks Willy, we will see
