I have a harddrive that was setup in computer A with WIn XP Pro. Works fine.
I took the same hd and switched it to computer B with a different
motherboard, processor, etc. The computer B just keeps rebooting because-of
course- it doesn't recognize the hd settings because Win was installed on a
different computer.
How can I get this hd to work with computer B without having to reformat it
and reinstall Win to work on computer B?
I want this hd to work just as it was in computer A. Thanks.
 
You will need to perform a repair install using you XP CD.
If this is an OEM license that came with computer A, doing this is a
violation of the EULA.
