Problem cloning image
I'm having a problem with a ghost image. I took a ghost image from the drive an older computer with a RAID 1 configuration running XP SP2. I then tried to clone it onto a newer drive of a different computer without a RAID configuration. I did this by adding the drive as a secondary drive and running GHOSTOEM32.exe from the main drive and cloning the image to the secondary drive. It said that it succesfully cloned the image.
I am now able to browse the secondary drive and see that it did indeed clone the old drive. However, I am unable to use that drive as the primary drive and boot from it. Instead it tries to boot up but brings up a black screen that reads: "We apologize for the inconvenience but windows did not start successfully....". I am prompted to either start normally or start with the last known good configuration, both of which momentarily flash a blue screen, attempts to start up again, and then brings me back to the black screen.
I have also tried booting from the XP reinstall cd to attempt a clean install but that does not work either. I end up at a blue screen that tells me windows did not start successfully and has been shut down to avoid damage to the computer.
If anyone could help me I would really appreciate it.
Thanks in advance

Nevermind, I read some more
Nevermind, I read some more posts and figured it out. I just had to change the drive settings from AHCI to ATA.
Thanks
