Re: Moving a hard drive w/ a Gateway-installed OEM Windows XPto a new mobo

Thanks for the links; will check these out tonight.  The hacker one looks
interesting.

Third, if possible, pre-load drivers for the new motherboard and

whatnot.  <snip>



New mobo came with a drivers CDrom.

Fourth, definitely use the drive cable that came with the new

motherboard.  In general older cables + newer mobos is a recipe for
quirky intermittent problems.



Yeah, that should probably be the first thing I do.  I had already used the
one cable they included for the DVD drives.  I think I have a few unused
ones in the basement.

Thanks for your help John!
