Moving Windows 2000 from 1 PC to Another

by techman . Updated 25 years, 6 months ago

I just built a new pc that is meant for my boss. His current Pc already has windows 2000 on it and in the past I’ve had great luck ( with win 9x ) in just copying over all the data minus the swap file and it redetecting everything. However I have yet to have figured out how to do the same with win 2k. Is there a simple way to do this in 2000 or will I just have to resetup everything on the new pc everytime I try to boot the old hdd in the new pc it get stop errors with an inaccessible boot device. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
