Ok, so I cloned the drive with a easeus bootable cd. All seemed to go well but it would not boot from the new drive.
A little bcd editing and I had a boot menu that would boot off the "e drive".
Problem is that everything (programs and such) still have shortcuts to the "c drive".
If I remove the original drive it boots but says "preparing your desktop" and comes up to a "broken" desktop that doesn't really load anything and nothing works but task manager and ctrl-alt-delete.
I THINK that if I were to change the "e drive" to be the "c drive" then it wouldn't probably work.
I'm just nervous about changing because the only way I can manipulate that is by booting off the original drive and changing the c drive to something else first. I imagine if it doesn't work I'll have a tough time getting it back together.
What am I missing?
