Hello. I currently have 2 x 80GB hard drives:
IBM Deskstar: Master, Windows is installed onto it and the other non-demanding programs like Word, iTunes etc.
Maxtor Diamondmax9:Slave All the games like Half-Life 2, Rome-Total War, PES4 etc.
Because I have s shuttle the 2 hard drives are keeping it extremely hot, so I opted to buy 1 x 250GB 8mb Cache 7200RPM off Ebay. This has arrived but I have no idea on how to transfer the windows onto the new hard drive and boot up with it. I tried using Norton Ghost 2003 by "ghosting the windows" hard drive onto the 250GB. I then tried booting from this one and it did not work. I took from this I had done something wrong. Does anyone have any idea on how to completely copy all the programs onto the new hard drive so I don't need to install all the programs again (+ I have installed Windows too many times by reformatting the old HD when installing it into the shuttle)
Any ideas would be much appreciated, Alex
