Hi all,

With imagex i made a install.wim file from xp pro. I made from a 26 gb big partition C: Than i format the hole harddrive. After it i made a 30 big partition ash drive c: I wash happy that i could just restore the install.wim with imagex and all worked.

I did a TIME taking reinstall of my Vista Home Premium recovery disk's. (Installed sp1 and sp2 + 150 updates. Did really take long to Install update Vista bloadware) After it i did a sysprep and used imagex in the next step to make a install.wim. Happy me finally got my Vista updated and backed up. Sow now i could format the anoying Vista from my harddrive.

Sow now i did use imagex again and restore my xp install.wim to the c drive. (I did format the drive 100% before image restore. Slow option) When i did boot i did get the message err1err3

Why does xp not work? Something wrong with the bootloader ore bootsect maybe?
