drive replacement --- what now?
I replaced my old drive with a new one as follows
old ---> slave
new ---> master
load xp onto master
used western digital utility to copy entire drive data from old to master
started up system -- everything okay
(day later)
rejumpered master to be sole drive
disconnected slave
restarted system --
new config found okay
windows xp banner screen, then
launched in another Windows Xp banner screen
stuck!
Everone once-in-a-while, I hear the click of a disk movemnt, but basically stuck.
i powered down and up again, ---same state was reached.
Any ideas?
