Everything is fine, drive letter fine, it finished copying files ans closed. Steps I take: - Formated drive as ntfs - Run winnt32.exe with the rigth switches and drive letter. - Edited Winnt.sif - Deleted Migrate.inf - Connected HD in the destination PC, but will not boot, maybe is that there is no boot sector? Thanks in advance. djnando

It won`t boot for me, says no operating system found... Posible cause for this? Thanks for the post i was searching for this some time. I have a pc that will not boot from floppy or cd rom. This is the only way i can install xp, but i follow all directions and no progress at all.... Can you help please?

Any other suggestion? thanks...

No, i installed from hologram cd (original XP Pro SP2 Oem)

Yes i have it.... I am connecting generic devices, microsoft have a generic bluetooth driver, that always worked, now i have to specify the device manager to search in %SystemRoot%\inf

I have a problem here, i have a vaio laptop and i formated and installed xp professional. everything was fine and i installed all vaio drivers like a charm but, now when i add a device like bluetooth radios, virtual cd-roms(daemon tools) i have to tell windows to search in the c:/windows/inf folder becouse it never fins drivers in automatic mode..... any suggestions????
