Why set new hd when xp gets installed, on the secondary IDE,you should put
it on the main IDE,put at end of cable,attach the old drive closest and set
it as slave,then set as the pageing file for master with xp.You can leave old xp
on it if desired,setting it as slave is important.To copy,set new as slave on primary IDE,
xp as master,First format the hd,run,type:diskmgmt.msc L.click on the drive,action,all,
format.When its thru close out,go to run,type:
XCOPY C:\*.* D:\ /c/h/e/k/r click ok,agree to all in the DOS window.
When its thru,shutdown computer,set pins correctly,youre thru.
Also,third party formatting isnt valid with this xp utility,let xp do all........
One more thing, D: is the slave,however any letter will work
