Hey HPPROBLEM:

Just FYI: if you plan on ghosting your HD and restoring it to a new system. You have to run SYSprep before performing the ghost, otherwise unless the machine uses nearly identical hardware to what you already have, you won't be able to boot into a working O.S. Only other suggestion is close to the post above me. If you don't want to sort through things now, you can ghost the drive to an image and then install ghost explorer on the new machine to retrieve your docs, etc. Same idea as a data backup but you are backing up a lot of information you don't need, it just saves time for the backup process but the restore process then becomes longer because you have to sort through all of it.
