can't boot XP image in multi boot new hard drive ATIH10

Can't find this exact situation, so sorry if I overlooked it.
Have ATIH10, have been religiously creating images of multi boot XP, Vista Win7. Now added new hard drive (went from Seagate 320 to WD 1TB black caviar). Could not move any images to the new hard drive after partitioning as desired. Reloaded from scratch Vista & Win 7 (what a pain) but have no XP disk so I must install from the image. I do not understand all the technical terms so please use more newbie descriptions. New hard drive was added as 1, original was 0; disconnected old and plugged new into #0 sata port, shows as 0 now.
Also, bought Office 10 student and used the 2 installs that came with it in Win 7, so I need to replace the Win7 with the image that has office 10 or buy Office 10 again (not an option). Thus 2 images need loaded XP and Win7. I have recover discs made at first images, but made many images since and deleted the old images. Do recovery discs have to be made with each new image? Images stored on external hard drives of various brands over time.
Using Easy BCD, can boot into Vista and Win7 in new hard drive no problem, but get error screen when I click on XP. Tried loading the XP image in the original hard drive after creating a 30+gig partition at end, but refuses to load. Dio I need to wipe this clean and load from scratch? Does XP have to be the first OS on a drive?
It is probaly my mistake saomewhere but I cannot figure out what I am doing wrong. I want partion order (if possible) Win7, Vista and XP. Plan to load win8 and delete Vista and also load maybe Linux and or Android in the future.
Thought I had both belt and suspenders with multi backups on multi external drives.
Thanks in advance!
