Cloned XP won't boot properly - stuck before log in/user select screen

Solution 1:

Are you ghosting disk to disk? Or disk to image to disk? Could be a problem with the image it's creating or the new drive. Make sure the new drive isn't bad and try to do a disk to disk clone (preferably SATA to SATA on the same bus). You could also try running chkdsk /f on the new disk by booting to the XP cd then going into recovery mode.
