How to extracting the drivers of a running OS to be used by AUR?
Hello everyone;
I'm beginner in Acronis. I have an old PC with Windows XP SP3 with an HDD connected by IDE cable. I made an image of it by Acronis True Image 2014 Premium. I restored this image to another complete new PC with an HDD connected by SATA cable. But it was not successful and the windows XP doesn't boot. I used again Acronis, this time I checked the box "Universal Restore". But in last steps of restore process, following warning window appeared:
File 'isapnp.sys', that is required for installation of device 'PCI standard ISA bridge (ID: (Standard system devices))' in Microsoft Window XP Professional, cannot be found.
In continue, also other warnings appeared with similar text, but about:
'pci.sys' 'PCI bus (ID: (Standard system devices))'
'atapi.sys' 'Primary IDE Channel (ID: (Standard IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers))'
'atapi.sys' 'Secondary IDE Channel (ID: (Standard IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers))'
Device driver 'PCI\VEN_1283&DEV_8888&SUBSYS_00000000&REV_03'
Device driver 'PNP0A08'
Device driver 'primary_ide_channel'
Device driver 'secondary_ide_channel'
I have important applications installed on old PC. Therefore I have to use this image. But I don't have the drivers of new hardware.
I used a trick as:
I installed a new fresh XP on new PC (target PC) by the XP installer disk and booted by it. Then I extracted all the drivers by two third party software ("Driver Genius" and "Driver Extractor") in original formats (.sys, .inf , .oem) then I copied containing folders to an USB stick and then I used AUR, and I addressed that USB flash as driver source for Acronis. But unfortunately those Warning messages appeared again and the restored XP doesn't boot!!!!
I found the atapi.sys file in "C:\Windows\System32\Drivers" of just installed fresh XP. Therefore in next try, I copied all the files in two folders of "C:\Windows\Inf" and "C:\Windows\System32\Drivers" and added them to USB flash beside the previous folders. Finally I used AUR by the USB flash as driver source again, but again the warnings appeared!!!
What the drivers are supported by AUR and how could I extract them from a running XP ???
