Now I have a 700X that has XP, can I take a "ghosted" second hard drive from the XP system and install it the ME system as the master drive (for disaster issues) and will it run despite of the XP registration restrictions that are dedicated to my original XP system? Now, I know that the initial hardware issue may

Drives H & I were on secondary. I will reload Windows 98 on the new primary.

2137 issues from CD-RW to Second HD
I couldn't get the stinking hard drive to come up with a Win98 startup disk, so I put it as a secondary on a Win2K machine and reformatted it FAT32. It still won't come up with the startup disk. The disk won't go through the full sequence. Any issues here I should be addressing?

We would still like to run OS9 (or OSX?) on the 80GB IBM drve since it runs way faster. The firmware on the Sonnet card is 3.12. Will it run OSX very well?, or stick with OS9.22? Can we put OSX on the second hard drive connected to the Sonnet card and leave OS9 on the 4.3 hard drive?

Two problems: second hard drive, and MCX
My question: Are there known issues with saving files from NTFS hard drives onto a hard drive that is FAT32 (and then back)? I know NT Server doesn't support FAT32, but the files seem to copy OK-something just isn't right. File systems determine how the 1s and 0s that make a file are located on the hard drive and

Also not good (or at least, "undefined") is what happens when shared devices no longer exist, eg when a second hard drive is removed.

In the past 2 months, I've tried installing SuSE 8.2 on my system's second hard drive. At first, I had an old 7 GB drive, which turned out to be pooched. So I got rid of it, and replaced it with a bright, shiny, new 30GB puppy made by Maxtor. Ok. New hard drive, tested out, drive works fine. No problems whatsoever.
