text: You didn't say how you were copying your files.  If you used imaging software to copy the hard drive, you may want to try formatting the new drive and trying it again.\n\nIf you're not using imaging software, I think that is your problem.\n\nIf the new hard drive boots, (which it appears that it does), try a "repair" using your XP disk.  Boot up the computer with the disc and choose the repair option.\n\nGood Luck!
