New install of XP on a SATA card



Had a disk going bad and went and purchased new one and clone failed
and I had the OS split between the C: and D: drives and limping along
with many functions and programs unavailable. It was usable though for
my most important daily use.

I installed a new drive on a SATA card and installed XP on there. It
is designated G: and has now given me 2 boot choices. The old XP with
issues and the new clean one.

I want to pull the 2 old drives from the machine.

Will XP then make the new XP on G: my C: drive automatically and rid
the dual boot choice?

Any advice or help appreciated.
