I had inported a dynamic disk to a system with success.

The problem now is when I move the disk back to the original system, I get a
stop: 0x0000007B inaccessebile_boot_device

TIA,

You have changed the hardware information on the DD. From the point of view
of this disk, putting it into another machine is a "move to new hardware."
The following articles may be of help. Post thanks to Bruce

Greetings --

Normally, unless the new motherboard is virtually identical to the old one
(same chipset, IDE controllers, etc), you'll most likely need to perform a
repair (a.k.a. in-place upgrade) installation, at the very least (and don't
forget to reinstall any service packs and subsequent hot fixes):

I just built a new computer - Athlon2.6 Ghz. When I tried
to swap my current, and not old, hard drive into my new
machine it won't run. I reinstall back into my old
computer, Duron 1 Ghz, and the operating system works
fine. A reinstall into the new machine still causes
problems and I cannot even go into safe-mode without a
crash. Any ideas to assist this migration without
reformatting?

Thank you,

David
