A friend of mine told me about this. He said that you can copy your OS from one HD to another, which is what I need to do to put an OS on my odl pc. Does anyone know where to download this?

I don't know offhand where to get it. I've never heard of it, but I'm guessing 'part 243' is the name of some software that does the OS copying?
You might try posting this in the 'tech' forum.
nah, you need a dohicky, not a part.
Sounds more like a piracy tool to me, something to circumvent the hardware locking in Windows XP maybe?
Norton Ghost is the main software package for copying HD contents (including OS) to another drive. I'm sure there are also other software packages to do this.
K..I'll try that and see if it will work...thanx.....Quote:

Are you going to keep XP on your old PC?
Yes....Quote:
