    Can A VISTA running system be CLONED.......

    On a bigger HD without any issues???

    Just curious if the asswipes put any countermeasures for that.

    Basically move all the shit from on System to a beefier HD and put the BEEFY

    hd in the sytem and use old HD as a blank HD for backup.

      Ram and HD changes don't set off XP, so you should be fine with a HD clone. Worst case, you call up the number and have them re-auth you.

      You spend more time HERE than it would take you to step through the phone system with MS.

            One of the great things is that your re-activation is usually forgotten every other month, or so. I ended up getting a replacement Dell for one that died, and for some dumb reason the new one was not formatted, and did not have a key, so I ended up using the key from the first one.

            Eventually, however, Dell fixed it.

              Eh - anything that does the job, does the job. I've used TrueImage before, and it worked fine.

                  Arguing with a troll is a lot like wrestling in the mud with a pig, after a couple of hours you realize the pig likes it.
