Hi there,
Please guys, I need some support here.
A friend of mine visited me (we're living in different countries). While we chatting on the internet, before he visited me, he used to tell me that he was facing problems with his Windows XP Home Edition.
I told him that he can bring his HDD with him and I'll try to sort it out.
The problem now is that when i try to launch his XP (after i installed his HDD into my PC) XP fails to load because, I guess, our 2 PCs have different hardware installed, like the processor, ram, motherboard.
I took the decision of making clone of his hard drive so that if i want to make any serious system changes, i won't corrupt his XP.
Now, how can i launch his XP from the clone image i took using acronis? Is repairing his windows via the recovery console can solve it or what? Note that i want to keep the system intact as far as i can to figure out the problems he used to tell me he was facing.
