Hi Guys,

I discovered that I had an illegal XP copy on my C drive, which has been cloned to my D drive.

I got an authentic verison of XP, hoping I could do a REPAIR and put in the authentic version. However it turned into an actual reinstall. So now it is in fresh on the C drive.

The D drive has my files and SETTINGS. But when using the XP Transfer option, it doesn't seem to work. I boot up with the D drive and select the options as on the old computer. I then boot up with C and attempt to ACCESS that drive through the File Transfer option, but it keeps saying that it cannot find whatever file it's looking for.

Any ideas or options?

Thanks.Try HereI can see the files on the D drive. One of my problems is that I don't know what file the Transfer program is looking for so how can I take ownership of it?I'm not the one to advise on this...FAST never worked very good for me and i pretty much abandoned it after a dozen or so messy attempts.You mean to say that the MS Transfer program doesn't work quite as well as advertised?I believe I have it going. I needed to INSTALL drivers like the previous poster. However it doesn't really do anything that I can detect.

However I think it still wants me to reinstall the programs. I'll do that and then run it again.

Thanks for your help.
