I just upgraded my motherboard, processor and RAM and all hardware is working fine. I want to use the same HDD from my old setup with this one. However, I can't boot into Windows which I expected would happen. My plan was to download a DOS drive image utility, create the image, reinstall windows, and then use the image. I tried using the Windows Recovery Console on the XP disk, but I can't seem to access the floppy drive from it. Since I also can't boot into Safe Mode Command Prompt I can't access it from there either. Is my only choice now to say bye to all my data and just re-install windows?
