Trouble transferring user profiles to new SSD build
I completed a new build with a 64 GB SSD intended for a fresh install of Win 7.
Prior to build, backed up my HDs and completed a W.E.T. save. Two of the HDs are coming with me to the new build (including the partition with my old install of Win 7).
During the NEW install of Win7 to my SSD, I used Sysprep and audit mode to change the default user and program data location, no issues.
I then started up W.E.T. to transfer my old user profile into the new one - this is where I'm having trouble.
The size of the files I want to transfer is too big for the new SSD, and W.E.T. doesn't seem to recognize the fact that my user profiles are NOT located on the SSD, and it won't let me map drives etc, do anything.
So, is there a way around this? Or, is the best way to boot the old win7 install, run sysprep/audit to transfer user profiles to the SAME location as I have the profiles for my new install, then boot the new install and see if I can log in as my old self? Or am I just barking up the wrong tree?
I don't know at this point, any help is appreciated.
