| 25364 | 2001-11-24 00:22:00 | Just got a new hdd and want to transfer old data on old hdd to it. It is formatted etc. I have tied selecting all and pasting under ME and then copying the windows dir. from dos ( using a start up floppy), but comes back at start up with corrupt or missing command.com.(it is there!) | Guest (0) | ||
| 25365 | 2001-11-24 01:07:00 | Lyndon Are you trying to copy ME from one to other? I think you will need to install it on the new drive. Copy the install image and away you go. Reinstall everything. Not worth trying to copy old one, I don't think. A good opportunity to have a completely clean registry and system. Good luck, Robo. |
