Hi,
I have a system that is for now booting from a SCSI HDD, and I would like to move the entire drive C to a bigger IDE drive, and I would like to know if by using something like Partition Magic, or Drive Image, without having to re-install Windows -- Thank you in Advance Merci a l'Avance Martin |

Drive Image 2002, Partition Magic 8 and Norton Ghost all allow us to "clone"
the Windows XP drive to another drive. Just make sure that the SCSI/IDE drivers are correctly loaded onto the boot disk, Then, after the "cloning" process is completed, disconnect the "old" C: drive and configure the PC to boot from the new drive. If you do not remove the old C: drive, the XP will not boot correctly. BTW: Most hard drive manufacturer provides a "disk cloning" utility free (included inside retail hard drive kits and downloadable from their web site). Y.
