Also, the slow boot.. with the POST searching for drives, is due to the drives being configured wrong, single/master/slave. It's got nothing to...
You sure you didn't set the WD drive as a master, not single? If it's the only drive, (and if I remember correctly,) you have to set it as...
Ilya, Yes, I was using the bootable CD. I can live without a mouse when using TI. Thanks, Kiran
I'm now trying the clone process on another PC.. one that hangs on startup when Acronis loads. Ah.. just as I write this, I found unplugging the...
Okay, I'm getting the report now, and will email it in a minute. I did one other thing. I made the bootable report floppy, and ran it on the...

I agree. :) I have to connect them both to a PC anyway in order to clone them. Also, the sysinfo is done in Linux, not Windows, correct? So...
One other thing.. that second partition Dell puts on the drive.. it does not appear when I install Windows XP. It's hidden. I'm not sure it has...
Why I think it wasn't cloned properly? I'm basing this on the fact the new cloned drive won't boot, and had a different amount of space in use...
I think I answered most of this in my other post, but just to clarify: Are the computers the same? The laptops are all the same, but the PC...
Ok Ilya.. I have Dell M70 laptops (about 30 of them) we use for training at work. I set up one with Windows XP Pro SP2, and all the applications...
(I failed to mention these are XP SP2 installs I'm working with.) Thanks for the reply, bobdat.. I'd like to understand how the hardware makes...
