Here is what I want to do. I am getting ready to slipstream sp2 into our copy of xp pro and I want to reformat my 80 gig SATA and use it as the boot drive. I am currently using my 160 gig IDE as my boot with xp pro and only sp1a and updates on it.
The reason I want to try the slipstreaming is that it may be the only way we can get it to work, a clean install. And I want to move my boot order over to my 80 gig anyway.
My 80 gig is a Seagate, my 160 is a Maxtor if that makes any difference.
I want to be able to keep the operating system on the 160 gig intact JUST long enough to know that it *took* on the SATA.
Any helpful advice on how to do this? Liz
