Hello all,

        This is not even remotely a CF question  :)  but the contributors to
this list have a broad range of experience, so I'm hoping somebody has run
into this before and has a solution.

        One of our older Win2k machines went down -- the m-board is fried
(bad power supply) but the HD seems to be OK.  I tried hooking up the old HD
with a new m-board/processor.  When I try to boot up, Windows starts going
through its normal boot sequence, but then always "blue-screens" with a STOP
error message that says "INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE".  I've gleaned enough
from MSDN to know that Win2k doesn't like it when there is a radical
hardware change (i.e. different motherboard and proc), but their suggestion
to "reinstall Windows" isn't an option at this point.  Has anyone run into
this before?  Any solutions?

Greatly appreciative,
David
