Re: Installing on a new drive - same computer



Assuming C is the older drive, and your winxp is sp1 or later.
(If winxp cd is pre sp1 it will only be able to format to 137gb)
Disconect old C, connect new drive, boot from wincd and
partition/format/install
Update.
Connect origonal drive as slave, Install whatever to wherever, recover data,
if thats what you want to new drive
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/308421/en-us will also be relevent in
recovery of data

I have windows xp home w/sp2 updates installed on my c-drive. I am
replacing
an older drive with a 400 gig. I want to install windows on my new drive
along with my programs. Any help? Will I be able to use my existing
windows
on my new drive? Will I have to remove my windows from my current C-drive?
