Completely duplicating old drive to the new drive

I have a disk of 300 GB that only 30 GB is used. It contains Windows XP Pro with 2 users.  Diagnostic tells me that a complete failure is emanate. Manufacturing sent me a new drive with Windows XP Pro and drivers and that's all. After spending an hour less time trying to replicate my old system I couldn't to recognize programs that I have installed even though I had the start > programs to show them. Of course, the problem is the registry since I updated the portions of data for all users. Because my wife uses this computer for work, half a day, I finally put the old drive in the location empty and attached the cable main and power for him and he ran very well, very well. (I had also updated the BIOS to recognize an E: drive if necessary.  How can I duplicate my main drive to E; basically drive and then I'll do primary? I searched high and low and founld some really crazy. I tried to backup my drive c: to DVD too, but something has gone very wrong.  Can anyone help? A copy c: to e: would be fine, but notta.

It's actually quite surprising that you got a spare with XP installed on it.

What you are looking for is disk cloning software.  If you have a Western Digital hard drive, you can get it from WD (http://support.wdc.com/product/downloaddetail.asp?swid=119) or you can get it separately (this is not an exhaustive list and is in no particular order):

  • Impossible to copy old details in the new Firefox

    Long story short, I did not know Firefox Sync and my old installation of Windows is damaged due to a corruption of HD, and I reinstalled Windows on a new PC.

    I have Firefox installed on your new PC, and in the past I would just copy files as places.sqlite on the new profile and bookmarks would be restored, but that has not worked. In fact, I replaced each element (straight upward to copy and paste to replace the new files) of the old profile in the news, but when I reopen it firefox, this is still a new installation; no saved passwords, cookies, history, nothing.

    Any ideas?

    Have you tried to use the Profile Manager?

    • To start, press the Windows key + R
    • Type in firefox.exe - ProfileManager and click OK
    • Create a new profile and choose the folder that contains your backed up files
    • Close the Profile Manager and launch Firefox
  • Old iMac to the new iMac?

    I have posted before, but I am now ready to move from my 2007 24 ' iMac to a model of 5K of 2015. The old operating system is leopard (10.5.8) and the news is... most recent .the (Sierra). I was told to join the former backup disk, Time Machine USB 2.0 on my new computer before the first start and following the guests. Of course the software may not be compatible, but I would like to transfer as many files over the old machine to the new as possible so that I can remove the 24 ", or at least re - goal there.

    This is the best method. Should I add some steps of the process or do something else? I was aware of something special during this process? Please notify.

    Thank you!

    Congratulations Kort! Yes, that would be the best way. But this the first time you start your new Mac. After that, it will create a second home folder issue.

  • Cannot move old profile to the new facility

    I need to move my FF profile for a new installation of FF on a new PC, but I can't get the profile to "stick".

    I tried to copy the files from the old profile into the new folder by default and the default editing the .ini to the game file, but it does not work. I tried to delete the new default profile and insert the old, but the default profile folder recreates itself. Where FF stores the new default profile number and how can I change it?

    I know that it is possible to move an existing to a new installation of FF profile, as I've done it before, but I can't make it work this time. What I am doing wrong?

  • reuse the license of Windows XP from the old office to the new office

    We have 4 old desktop computers with windows xp I want to reuse the license of Windows XP from the old office to the new office

    I bought a HP desktop computer and dell preinstalled with Windows XP. The office has not worked for a few years, he has the processor are P4 and slow work.

    I recently bought a desktop computer and wanted to know can I use the same license key to get Windows XP installed on my new desktop computer.

    Note: I have lost my original installation of windows CD but have the office and Windows XP product code is available to me.

    The old HP desktop and dell came with a license with the sticker on the side.

    Any PC which came with a sticker with a key to activate product on it has a license that is related to this PC (and only this PC) for ever. It is not legal to install on a PC using the key videos from another PC.

    If the PC you want to install XP on still has its sticker, then as much as you have a compatible installation XP CD, XP can be re-installed using the key on the sticker.

    Only commercial versions of XP can be moved from one PC to another. With the commercial versions, the activation key came with the media, not on a label stuck on the PC.

    ABSG dear,

    Welcome to the MSFT support community.

    Try to start your system in safe mode and disable/uninstall the game for now. If the uninstallation of this game is everything to normal, you will need to install it again. If this is not the case, try another solution.

    Create a new user profile and delete the two accounts as there is a high risk user accounts has been corrupted. Heads up here learn more on how you can fix a damaged user profile and create a new:

  • importing data from the old system to the new system, key to the raw16 column

    Hi, experts,

    now I have a new system, the design of the system is to use raw (16) column as the key column in all tables of database.
    of course, when the new system goes live (in production), new records of transactions are written to the new database system.
    When the new system inserts new records, it manages itself to avoid any conflict of the raw key column value (16)


    Now, I'm dealing with this problem:

    I need to import data from the old system to the new system, I use sys_guid() to fill the column raw (16) into the new database system.
    How can I avoid conflicts of raw column value (16) between the old system data and the new data of database system?

    the sql code I write is very simple:

    insert into new_sys_table_a (key_column_raw_16,...,...)
    Select sys_guid(), old_sys_col_a, old_sys_col_b
    of old_sys_table_a;
    insert into new_sys_table_a (key_column_raw_16, col1, col2 )
    select key_column_raw_16, col1, col2
    from old_sys_table_a;
