just bought myself a larger hard disk and i want to clone the original drives to my new one ,my motherboard CD had nortons ghost 7 but this cannot run within windowsxp ,the boot up disk that windows produces stupidly wont see any drives whatsoever (there all ntfs) anyone know of a free cloning program that works within xp and knows what ntfs is ,i wont to completly clone the 3 partitions on my old drive to 3 on my new one so i can remove the smaller one and reletter the new drive to C,D,E so it boots as the old one does :) err easily said than done :D

Believe NOTHING anyones says or writes unless you witness it yourself and even then your eyes can deceive you

None of this "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" crap it just means i have at least two enemies!

 

There is only one opinion i listen to ,its mine and its ALWAYS right even when its wrong

 

Its far easier to curse the darkness than light one candle

 

Mathew 4:19

Grangers law : anything i say will  turn out the opposite or not happen at all!

Life insurance? you wont enjoy a penny!

you could try maxblast from maxtor, as this as the option to clone your main HDD to the new one, as for the second drive you could just set that as slave, let maxblast copy your main hdd then reboot using the new hdd and just copy the other hdd to the new one,

as for a free prog to do both i think you might struggle finding a good one that will do it correctly
