HI Folks Kinda DIY - as I'm trying to do it myself ....
Have 'successfully' cloned my old winxp c: drive to a new (1 terabyte) drive - using some free s/w XXCLONE.
Nearly all is good, though it took a long time...
Only problem now is that the new drive won't boot on its own. Under a dual-boot setup I can 'make' it boot manually, but if only the new drive is installed in the PC then it wont boot - just hangs with a flashing cursor.
Seems that the new drive is set up as a logical partition, not as a primary partition - thinking that could be the problem ..?
So - does anybody know of an easy (ideally free!) way to change logical partitions into primary partitions..? I've already considered "angle-grinder"!
Thanks
