"Rod Speed" claimed:
Timothy Daniels wrote in message ... 1) I have never used a "ute" other than MS's Disk Manager (to remove partitions) and Drive Image (to clone a drive). What did you do when the clone wouldnt boot ? I used a different channel combination to do the copy. I had 4 IDE channels available - 2 ATA/133 channels on a PCI controller card, 2 ATA/33 channels on the mobo. Each could take either one or two HDDs. Copying from one PCI card channel to another card channel, copying from Master to Slave on a single card channel, copying from one mobo channel to another all wouldn't work. Only copying from Master to Slave on the same mobo channel would produce a bootable drive. PowerQuest/ Symantec tech reps had no idea why, but guessed that it had to do with the slower speed of the mobo. Why this only affects bootability and not file accessability is unanswered, but once the bootable drive is produced and booted alone once, the drive can be booted from any channel - alone or in a pair. Basicly, the copy would only work as advertized when done in the most common way. *TimDaniels* |
