Hello,
Right I have a hard drive from a laptop that was running windows XP. I want to put it in my desktop (and remove the old HDD) I have connected it up, and set the jumper to device0. The computer boots up but stops at the bit where it says there is a problem with startup and gives you the option of safe mode etc... but goes no further (have tried safe mode...still no joy, just freezes) I'm guessing its something to do with the HDD and XP being set up for the different devices on the laptop. Is there any way that I can configure it to run on my desktop?
Any help will be appreciated, as I am now stuck lol
