Fook, Fook, Fook

I tried to upgrade my great WinXP that has been running continuously for 8 years to a new SSD drive

cloned the partition etc... everything good and then BAM!!! can't boot, corrupted SYSTEM32/CONFIG/SYSTEM registry file

after a few scandisk check, turns out the partition was fooked too, and I suspect a nasty virus that has been disabled years ago had damaged slightly some file structure which are no longer recoverable in the new partition, yet still can be read in the old partition.

This is a fooking tragedy, spent all day day trying to recover the damn thing with different solutions, not working

looks like I have to do a clean install on the SSD drive, and re-install all my specific business apps to run all my ops again

fuck that shit !!!
