Zeuspaul's particular problem, though, is trying to boot a partition from a SCSI drive which was copied brute-force from an IDE install.

Actually its two problems, one current and one anticipated. I could not install NT on the SCSI drive starting from scratch ie from NT CDROM to SCSI harddrive. NT does not see the SCSI harddrive.

The anticipated problem will probably just go away. All we have to do is pass a law stating that KOT drives have to be either both SCSI or both IDE.

I understand and can relate to what you are saying about registry differences and BSOD's, but I am not totally convinced. As you know NT is very rigid and unforgiving at times, but at others very versatile and quite often suprises me!
I have an IDE system with a ghost image. I'll plop in an Adaptec card and SCSI drive, ghost it and see what happens.

I'll let you know how it turns out.
