win2000 lost page file after copy to new disk!!!

[Rhonda85]

I am copying win2k to my new hard disk using maxblast 4 from maxtor. It copied the entire partition and everything seemed okay until windows loaded and it stated that there was no page file and then stops. I tried to load safe mode but the same thing is happening. How do I create a page file if windows will not load?

Windows is able to load with no page file if configured to do so. In the event that a page file is configured (99.9% of the time) but the file does not exist it will be created automatically. You'll have to provide more details.

With only the system/boot drive in the system, or powered on, boot to a DOS or Windows 9X Start-up diskette that contains fdisk.exe and run the following command:
FDISK /MBR
This re-writes the Master Boot Record and erase the disk signature associated with volume GUID. Windows 2000 should assign default drive letters and allow you logon. Click the article number below for more information about FDISK:
