Winapp2.ini Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 My new computer came with Windows Vista and a SATA drive. I'm either on an IDE drive or a PATA drive right now, and I want to just ghost this windows XP over that Windows Vista. The only problem is, I don't know if I can just do that outright like that. I'd love it if I could, but I think theres drivers I need and neither computer has a Floppy drive. Can anyone confirm this for me? winapp2.ini additions thread winapp2.ini github Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Andavari Posted October 2, 2008 Moderators Share Posted October 2, 2008 Be careful with some third-party disk defragmenting tools when using a SATA drive formatted with NTFS.
