Cloning XP Drive not working

Thread needs solution

Hi everyone,

I use True Image 2014 to occasionally clone Win 7 drives, and its working like a charm. Now I wanted to do the same with a XP drive for a friend. The process finishes with no error but when I want to start from the new drive, I get a bluescreen for a fraction of a second and the PC starts all over again.
I tried to fix everything related to the bootmanager with the windows CD but it wont work either. Do I have to mind something special with XP cloning or could it be something else?
Btw I tried to copy it to two diffrent drives and both are not working, but the original one is.

Thanks in advance

Clone should be performed only after booting from the ATI bootable Rescue Media. Also, do not allow the PC to boot to Windows with both drives still connected.

But, better and safer would be to create a full disk mode backup and restore it to the new drive.
