    Hey
    I am trying to move my OS to a larger HD, 20 to 40gig. I used the copy drive from ghost 9, but when I try to boot with the copyied drive it stalls soon after the BIOS has loaded, Win xp splash screen and then nothing.
    I have tried running check disk many times, such a pain as it will only run upon startup with NTFS.
    I select, (check)
    Check source for file system errors
    Check destination for file system errors
    Set drive active (for starting OS)
    Copy MBR
    I have been through nortons site and have not found anything that describes my fault.
    Any help
    Thanks

    Also most drive manufactures give you utilities for copying your drive, tried those?
