Hello everyone,
I built a computer for Christmas and im having a problem. When ever im in a game like World of Warcraft my computer gets a blue screen pop up and then crashes (I think that blue screen is called the blue screen of death correct me if im wrong). Im thinking this is happening because Im using an old 10G HD that has my window installed on it. I have a 160gb HD as my SLAVE, I was wondering if ther was any way i could put windows in the 160gb harddrive without losing any data on both harddrives. I would download it in the 169GB HD but i got the windows XP upgrade not the real installation.

Thanks,

You can clone your old 10GB HDD to your new 160 GB.  But at first you need to create a 10 GB partition on the 160 GB HDD.
Acronis True Image will automatically transfer everything from one HDD to another without losing any data, and 160GB HDD will boot as master correctly.
It's a tested expedient!The manufacturer of your new hard drive may well have free CLONING software on offer at it's support area.

However, I suspect that this won't allieviate the bsod which is probably due to overheating.
If you upgraded from a previous installation rather than formatted and started from scratch, your problems are likely to LIE there.
To use an upgrade XP CD for a full and clean installation, you only need a former OS installation CD as proof of ownership. During the setup routine, XP will ask you to insert the old OS CD as a check.Ok thanks for the help so far i made shure to boost my Powersupply fan speed and i coppied the HDD and put it on its own Partition. I then tried to boot from the 160gb HD but it said i was missing a fie, so i changed it to boot back from the 10gb HDD and looked at the partition and the 10gb HDD and the 10gb HDD had more space used up then the new partition. Well im going to keep trying Thanks in advance. Quote
