[H] change XP path

[Winterlight]

I have a PC with XP PRO running on logical drive E:>   The boot partition 
is C and completely seperate. I have 2k on logical drive D:>. I would like 
to get rid of the 2K and make it a clone of my XP without doing the work. 
Fortunately, when I did the XP build last month, I made progressive image 
file backups ..... first boot... drivers  installed... patched... that sort 
of progression.

What I would like to do is restore the E:> image on the D:> partition, it 
will fit, at a basic install with all drivers and patched. No apps other 
then what installed with All in Wonder Drivers. So when I boot it up, the 
only thing that  would be wrong is the paths to everything.... D:> instead 
of E:>.

Has anybody tried something like this. It would save a lot of time...but 
would it work... would it sort itself out?

thanks
