From what I can gather, you're trying to make an exact replica of the contents of the drive so you won't have to bother installing windows and drivers. It won't work, so don't bother. Installations of windows are specific to the hardware they run on. If you plug a hard drive into someone else's system (or make an exact copy of its contents) more often than not, you will just get a blue screen when entering windows.
Oh, and Xplorer, there's a typo at the end of your sig :P
