Hi
I wanted to chnage my hard drive so I copied my old hard drive via a software named Drive Copy which copied everything including windows XP to my new hard drive. The problem is that when I boot the PC freezes at the welcome screen. I think that it's because windows XP have a protection with the serial of the hard drive. How can I make XP only work on my new hard drive ? I have full legal license of Windows Xp. Thanks at advance.
