Cloning a new hard drive with WXP
I am running Windows XP and have installed and formatted a new larger hard disk. I wanted to clone the new disk then remove (or change the drive letter) of the old disk.
I downloaded "XXCopy" to do the cloning however it cannot "do" XP.
Anyone got any good (preferably free) methods of doing the job. My thoughts are to re-install XP on what is now my "F" drive and then clone from that point. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
I am aware that MS do sysprep but I don't think that it is available for non corp. use.
