The hard drive on my Dell Precision is old and only 30GB. I am running XP, SP3. I bought a120GB drive and tried cloning the old drive with O&O diskimage. I tried to clone the drive with each option, ranging from simple clone to "Direct forensic". Each
result was the same, i would try and boot off the new drive and would get a missing file failure. I tried to use my Dell OEM XP CD to repair the installation but it did not work. I just get a missing file error and the PC reboots. Any ideas?
