I tried creating a disk image of an old windows 2000 machine using Acronis. However, it did not work. When I tried to load the image on a newer system, i get a blue screen with "inaccessible boot device".
any suggestion would be greatly appreciated, even if it means buying software.
BTW, the old system is a P4 using a 32GB IDE drive. I want to load the image on a SATA drive.
If you can put the drive back in the original machine, them install a driver for the new HDD controller, it will probably work when you move it back.
