    why do people clone hard-drives instead of copy/paste?

    There will always be locked system files, even if you don't have any applications running. If it will boot or not depends on what you do. A formatted primary partition set as active will be bootable.

    Put w7 iso img on a clean HDD & make bootable?

    Next time you can try: extract the iso to a small primary partition. Make the partition active. Use bootsect /nt60 to create a correct boot sector (if xp has formatted the drive). Put the harddrive back and install Windows.

    Poll: Do you use a 32 or 64 bit OS?

    Linux is one of the exceptions. Without shared gfx, you should be able to use all of it as normal system ram. The pae kernel is not restricted as in Windows.

    I think that is debatable. The content of unreferenced sectors is not important.

    Transfering OS to raid array?

    Why do you think that? From the OS's perspective there is no difference in addressing the data. The OS is not concerned about the physical layout (LBA numbering is the same before and after).

    Transfering OS to raid array?

    A reinstall shouldn't be necessary. You just need to make sure Windows has access to the raid driver. It is a bit like switching from pata to sata. You can google a how-to guide.

    Just a question thats puzzeled me for a while...
