migrating w2k partition to larger HD

Hi

i want to migrate my w2k ntfs partition to a larger hard disk

i have made a partition->partition cloning using ghost2002 but the partition copied to the larger hard disk doesnt allow me access because of wrong password at logon

of course i know the correct password. i have also disabled logon but the problem after cloning persists. the comp requires username and pw.

is there any easy way around this problem?

thanks

gianmarco

after using windows for any length of time you hear tons advice, solutions ect.. anyway, the best thing anyone can do when transferring a os, to another drive, or another machine, copy all your files and things you need, clean install the operating system on the new drive/machine. then add your programs and files and settings. this may sound like alot of trouble, and many will have clever ways of making a transfer but the simple fact is, this is windows, it likes a clean install, i myself use drive image to make a complete boot-able cd backup of my system, i only use these if a system crash, virus, or something trashes the os, but if i add new hardware and the os doesn't boot, i use my file backups after a clean install, saves alot of headache and hair pulling.
