 |  image partition from one system to another should be a routine thing on paper ... alas Bought emachines EL1700 as replacement nforce 630i chipset Current OS: Win2K 1) Installed nvidia drivers: http://www.nvidia.com/object/nforce_winxp_15.24.html (win2K is supported!) 2) Rebooted 3) Took image of drive 4) Put image on emachines outcome 1 bleuscreen: inaccessible bootdevice Re-doing this routine i noticed the SATA - drivers are not installed when installing the mentioned nvidia-driver. Attempt 2 1) I installed the SATA-drivers manually in win2k (via "add hardware") 2) Rebooted 3) Took image of drive 4) Put image on emachines outcome 2 bleuscreen: inaccessible bootdevice humor emachines hasn't got a floppy, can't do a clean W2K install (can't load sata-drivers) There wasn't an install Vista disk with the emachines, don't know how to restore the Vista partition

uninstalled VIA drivers re-installed NVIDIA drivers image partition (no-reboot) put image on emachines  same resultMust be the sata II drivers aren't compatible with W2K Possible solutions: Install fresh XP (vista is no solution as 2 main apps aren't compatible) Intall Ubuntu + Wine Most likely = solution 1 but where can i buy a license? someone willing to ship one (all expenses paid)?

| If you don't manage to get there, I can drop by and ship it to you. In case they do difficult, because OEM cd's can't be sold without PC. Drop me a call
