Hello Ernie,
I did this recently except I had two 20 G hard drives. Win2k. It
didn't quite work although nothing was completely lost. When I
couldn't get it to work, I took it to my guy. I can't remember
exactly what he did but recall some previously installed drivers were
not liked by new mobo. He eventually saved all contents to disk 2 and
reformatted disk 1. I had to reinstall most apps.
Best regards,
Jim Johnson mailto:jejohn@xxxxxxxxxxx
