Suggestions on full XP image backup?

[KG]

I would like to do a full bootable backup of my complete XP partition to another bootable hard disk
on this system. I' am presently running XP on one HD and Win 98SE on another and to change I just
change boot device in BIOS. Is it possible with XP activation etc.? I have Nortion installed if
that is any help. Tanks much for any help

If that is Norton Ghost then you can clone one disk to another.

I did exactly what you want earlier today. I use BootIt Next
Generation, from http://www.terabyteunlimited.com . It's a boot
manager and partition manager, and you don't need to change any BIOS
settings to use it.

Yes. A Complete exact compressed image will include all the activation
info. What I use is Image for Windows - from http://www.BootitNG.com
