I beleive that XCOPY will not copy over hidden files correctly. At least it didn't with DOS6.2 Maybe win98 dos is new and improved and will support this ;)

xcopy will copy anything if you give it the right commands. Do xcopy /? and you will get all the information you need. However, no matter what you do with xcopy, windows may not boot. It is now on a drive it was not installed on, and it will be very confused. (Can you blame it?) Under these conditions, Linux wouldn't boot either.

If it is the case that if I move it as I was thinking of doing it won't boot then I'll back up what I need and reinstall it. Thanks for all the suggestions so far. Mike
