O/S and data on Drive A needs to go to Drive B?

[gradius]

I just recently purchased a 6.4gig Ultra ATA/66 hard drive, only to find out that after a week of using the drive, re-installing Win98 and software, etc. the drive is in fact NOT ATA/66. Great.
I've spent too much time install all this mess just to delete it all, and start again on my original 1.0gig drive http://www.sysopt.com/forum/frown.gif . How can I use XCOPY to get all my data from the 6.4 ( which is only using 900MB of space ) to the empty 1gig drive that is already set-up and running in my system? Doesn't XCOPY convert all your files to 8.3 format? I know I've got tons of long file names, and I defintely don't want to lose those. Most are for installed programs. Please help! Doh!

XCOPY32 [source] [destination] [switches]
&nbsp&nbsp&nbspGradius:At the command prompt type without the quotes:"XCOPY32 C:\*.* D:\ /S /E" This will copy everything except hidden and system files from C:\ to D:\ and preserve the long filenames. I think in W98 even if you type XCOPY it will run XCOPY32 which is the 32 bit version./S & /E will build the directory structure. Add the /H switch and you get the hidden and system files./V verifies that the new files are readable. /C causes it to continue even if there are errors which rarely occur. I like to use this switch . /I will force destination to be treated as a directory and save a lot of time answering prompts./Q will supress the display of filenames and other messages while copying if you don't want to see them.
XCOPY32 C:\*.* D:\ /S /E /I /C /Q /V /H
