dying hard drive copy - afterwards
Hello all. Laptop had a hard drive that had developed some errors on it (Windows XP Home, trying to boot would just blue screen and reboot).
Bought new hard drive and copied old to new on seperate PC. Put new in laptop, booted into Windows OK. Went ahead and ran chkdsk with both options checked to fix possible copy problems. Went fine.
Well, the newer hard drive of course was larger, so now I am trying to resize the main partition. I am trying Easeus Partition Manager. Problem is, it starts the process, but stops and says there are errors on the partition that must be fixed before it can resized. So, I ran chkdsk again (this time from the Windows CD in repair mode). Try the partition resize again, same error!
What gives?
