Default Partition

Recently i formatted my PC, i made a partition to my hard drive which has capacity 200GB and seperated 10,00GB with Windows XP. It all works great but i would like to transfer my OS files from the C: (190GB) to the D: (10,00GB) partition, and to make it boot from the D: partition. How can i do this??

unfortunatly i think you will have to reinstall windows onto the D drive because as soon as you start up your computer files will become unaccessable in the registry and such

Are you sure you have a 10,000GB drive? I have only seen drives up to 750GB. Anyways, you can ghost your hard drive using norton ghost.

Then you don't need the extra comma and double zeros. just put 10GB.

Is your D drive just storage space? Or is there an OS on there such as Windows XP?
