got it, will keep yeah posted thanks.
Agh what a mess this process was! so i got the 1.5 tb drive, i partitioned it to 2 drives, and dumped all the stuff from my old hd to the second side of the partition. Backed up the image on another hard drive. and i tried to restore the image, but it is said i had to delete all partition on the new drive before it can restore the image, I spent all that time backing everything up, so i said screw it and just installed a fresh copy of windows. For future reference, there's no way to restore the image on the drive without touching the other partitions?
thanks.
I don't think you could have restored the image with the drive partitioned, but clean installs usually go well, so you a probably better off. Since your HDD was failing, you might have had corrupted system files or other corrupted files. This would limit the problem to only your data files.
yeah, your totally right, Im just installing everything now, then ill make an image for the future.
thanks for all the help.
