Ghost c drive to a new HDD

Hi Guys,

c drive is a system partition on old HDD while I am trying to clone it to a partition with larger size on a new HDD. I am using ghost 8.2. After i finish 'partiton' to 'partion' transfer my pc refused to start from the new HDD with imaged partition. I know it might because missing some MBR thing but is there anyway i can add such info ? i have tried:

1. format c with /s, failed
2.fdisk, failed
3. xcopy, failed
4. install win xp to new HDD and then use ghost to clone, failed

any idea, thanks?

Boot using your xp cd and use the recovery console, once there use the fixmbr command to re-write it. Also try the fixboot command too.

It's worth a try tho i must admit ive never had the recovery console work for me!
