Hi all,
I'm trying to transfer a HDD with a working copy of XP Prof. SP2 to a
different PC.
I've removed the HDD and installed it into the new PC, booted from the XP
CD. After the XP installation loads I selected Install (not repair), setup
then detects the existing copy of XP and then I select the repair option.
Setup copies all the necessary files.
After rebooting XP setup continues and I get to the CD Key Screen. At this
stage the mouse is working, but after I touch *any* key on the keyboard the
mouse stops working along with the keyboard. Hence I can go no further with
the install.
I'm using PS2 keyboard and mouse and have tried without the mouse plugged in
and with several other keyboards with the same result.
Any ideas appreciated.
TIA
Greg
