I may be all wet here, but isn't there always a lot of problems when copying
an operating system from one hardware environment to another, which I think
is what Jason is doing here. I had tried copying my WIN98 laptop operating
system to a PC clone harddrive and making it the primary partition, but my
recollection is that it would not boot. Even with plug and play would there
not be a lot of drivers that would need to be installed to accommodate the
new hardware and operating environment?
