Windows 2000, changing hard drives

Okay, trying to upgrade an 80gb hard drive to a 300gb hard drive. Previously, Win2000 is set up as such:
8gb Primary Fat32
~70gb Extended NTFS

And I used ghost to transfer the drive contents, and had the partitions resized to:
30gb Primary Fat32
~240gb Extended NTFS

And I get a stop error bsod, inaccessable boot device with the 300gb drive.

Is there anything I need to be aware of before I try another disk copy tomorrow?
 
Also, does your Windows 2000 Install have at least Service Pack 3? SP2 and prior installs of Windows 2000 do not reognize drives over 137GB so that may also be your problem. In addition to the service pack, there is a registry entry that needed to be modified/added. You can find details here.
